GPA generates fully quantitative deformationand strain maps from HR(S)TEM images.

Key Features◆ Determines geometric phase imagesusing choice of masks and real-space averaging [1]◆ Generates 2D deformation tensor from HR(S)TEM images(see left for local rotation map from HRTEM image [2])◆ Allows calculation of color maps and contours of strains(see above right for stresses around an edge dislocation [3])◆ Corrects for optical distortions due to the projector lenssystem of the electron microscope [4]◆ Generates strain tensors from multi-spots analysis (seebottom for lattice expansion map obtained from seven spots)
