Review of '12th Japanese-Polish Joint Seminar on Micro and Nano Analysis (August 29-September 1, 2018)'

摘要

"The 12th Japanese-Polish Joint Seminar on Micro and Nano Analysis" was held in Fukuoka, Japan from August 29 to September 1, 2018, and the proceedings were published in May, 2019, as a special issue of Materials Transactions (Vol. 60, No. 5). The main purpose of this seminar is to discuss the structural analysis of materials by electron microscopy techniques. Among the papers presented at the seminar, this article briefly reviews the following topics: observations of dislocations in a thick specimen by ultra-high voltage electron microscopy, suppression of geometric phase shift due to antiphase boundaries in dark-field electron holography, and structural characterization of amorphous materials by electron diffraction techniques.
