5 Part 1: Electron optics
6 Microscopy with electrons Electrons are energy-rich elementary particles Electrons have much shorter wavelength than x-rays (~ 3 pm = 3 x m for 100kV electrons) Resolution not limited by wavelength but by comparatively poor quality of magnetic lenses and radiation damage High vacuum is essential - no live specimens!

11 Electron sources Thermionic emitters Tungsten filament: emits electrons at ~ 3000 C (melts at 3380 C) Large source size, poor coherence of electron beam Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB 6 ) crystal: single crystal, emits electrons at ~ 2000 C Electrons are emitted from crystal tip -> smaller source size, better coherence Energy spread ΔE ~ 1-2 ev, depending on temperature Field emitters Oriented tungsten single crystal, tip radius ~ 100 nm Small source size -> high coherence of electron beam, high brilliance Requires very high vacuum (10-11 Torr) Electrons extracted from crystal by electric field applied to tip (extraction voltage) Schottky emitter: Zr plated, heated to ~ 1200 C to assist electron emission and prevent contamination, energy spread ΔE ~0.5 ev Cold field emitter: not heated, very low energy spread, best temporal coherence, but contaminates easily (frequent flashing with oxygen gas)
12 LaB6 vs FEG LaB6 FEG
13 Field emission tip
14 Coherence LaB6 filament field emission tip incoherent electron beam coherent electron beam temporal coherence: all waves have the same wavelength (they are monochromatic) spatial coherence: all waves are emitted from the same point source (as in a laser)
15 Electrons: particles or waves? According to the dualism of elementary particles in quantum mechanics, electrons can be considered as particles or waves. Both models are valid and used in electron optics. Electrons can be regarded as particles to describe scattering. The wave model is more useful to describe diffraction, interference, phase contrast and image formation.

17 Electrons in an electrostatic (Coulomb) field The force produced by an electrostatic field E on a particle of (negative) charge e - is F = -ee This means that the electron is accelerated towards the anode. The kinetic energy E [ev] of the electron after passing through a voltage U [V] is E = eu The wavelength of an electron moving at veolicty v (de Broglie wavelength) is λ = h/mv where h is Planck s constant, m the rest mass of the electron. Both the mass and the velocity of the electron are energy dependent. Relativistic treatment is necessary for acceleration voltages > 80 kv. Electron beams are monochromatic except for a small thermal energy spread arising from the temperature of the electron emitter.

26 Considerations for biological specimens Biological specimens consist mainly of light atoms (H, N, C, O), which suffer most from radiation damage This makes it essential to minimize the electron dose to about ~25 e/å 2 for single- particle cryoem Low electron dose means low image contrast

28 Electrons in a magnetic field Lorentz force on a charge e - moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B (vectors are bold): F = -e (v x B) The direction of F is perpendicular on v and B. v, B, and F form a right-handed system (right-hand rule, where v = index finger, B = middle finger and c = thumb) In a homogenous magnetic field, if v = 0 then F = 0 v is perpendicular to B: the electron is forced on a circle with a radius depending on the field strength B v is parallel to B: no change of direction Note that unlike the electric field, the magnetic field does not change the energy of the electron, i. e. the wavelength does not change!
29 Electromagnetic field Passing a current through a coil of wire produces a strong magnetic field in the centre of the coil. The field strength depends on the number of windings and the current passing through the coil.
30 Electromagnetic Lens Pole pieces of soft iron concentrate the magnetic field
31 Electromagnetic Lens The magnetic field is rotationally symmetric and changes gradually
32 Refraction in light optics A light beam is refracted (bent) when the wave enters a medium of a different optical density. The refractive index changes abruptly at the interface.
33 Path of electron moving with velocity v in magnetic field B of a ring coil, exerting force F Diagram by Elena Orlova, Birkbeck College London
34 Magnetic lens Magnetic lenses are electromagnetic coils with soft iron pole pieces. The strength of the magnetic field depends on the number of windings NI and on the pole piece gap. The field is cylindrically symmetrical about the optical axis. The field strength B(z) along the optical axis is bell-shaped. Upon passing through the lens, the image rotates around the optical axis.
35 The lens diagram looks the same for glass and magnetic lenses The light microscope is focussed by varying the object distance. The electron microscope is focussed by varying the focal length of the lens f.

50 Contrast mechanisms Image no interaction electron wave amplitude object modified amplitude, unchanged phase amplitude contrast phase contrast phase object shorter wavelength within object modified phase modified phase, unchanged amplitude
51 The scattered electron wave experiences three phase shifts by the imaged object this carries the information about the structure and is the one we need to determine by the inner potential of the specimen this is 90 for all scattered waves by the spherical aberration of the objective lens this depends on the scattering angle (= resolution) and gives rise to the oscillation of the contrast transfer function (CTF) (note that this only holds for the weak phase approximation!)
52 Origin of the phase shift The potential V(x,y,z) experienced by the scattered electron upon passing through a sample of thickness t causes a phase shift ψ incident V t (x, y) = t 0 V (x, y,z)dz V(x,y,z) ψ exit The vacuum wavelength λ of the electron changes to λ` within the sample: h h λ = 2meE λ " = 2me(E +V (x,y,z)) When passing through a sample of thickness dz, the electron experiences a phase shift of: dϕ = 2π( dz λ $ dz λ ) dϕ = π V (x,y,z)dz = σv (x, y,z)dz λe (how many times does λ fit into the thickness dz?) (by how many degrees out of 2π = 360 does this change the phase φ?)
53 The weak phase approximation As we have seen, the phase shift is proportional to the projected potential of the specimen: ϕ = σ V (x,y,z)dz = σv t (x, y) The potential V of the specimen shift modifies the phase of the incident plane wave ψ incident to: ψ incident Ψ exit = Ψ incident e iϕ = Ψ incident e iσv t For V t <<1 and thus φ<<2π as for thin biological specimens: V(x,y,z) Ψ exit = Ψ incident e iϕ i = e i π 2 = cos( π 2) + isin( π 2) Ψ incident (1 iϕ) = Ψ incident iψ incident ϕ = Ψ incident iψ scattered ψ exit à For thin biological specimens there is a linear relation between the transmitted exit wave function and the projected potential of the sample: Ψ exit Ψ incident! " # (1 iϕ) =1 iϕ =1 iσv t 1(background )

55 Phase contrast exit wave = scattered wave + unscattered wave imaginary exit wave Scattered wave is 90 out of phase with unscattered wave. Ψ exit = ψ unscattered + iψ scattered real Vector notation. Vector length shows amplitude (not drawn to scale) Cosine wave notation (amplitudes not drawn to scale)
56 Phase contrast exit wave = scattered wave + unscattered wave A perfect lens in focus gives minimal phase contrast à Positive phase contrast Since ψ scattered = φψ unscattered with φ << 1: ψ scattered << ψ unscattered I image = ψ exit 2 = ψ unscattered + iψ scattered 2 ψ unscattered 2 = I incident
57 Phase contrast exit wave = scattered wave + unscattered wave exit wave Ψ exit = ψ unscattered + iψ scattered Minimal contrast Maximal contrast Defocus phase contrast Minimal contrast Lens aberrations cause an additional phase shift that generates phase contrast
58 Lens aberrations Spherical aberration Chromatic aberration
59 Defocus generates an additional phase shift Perfect lens Image plane In a perfect lens, the number of wavelengths from object to focal point is the same for each ray, independent of scattering angle (Fermat s principle) Lens with spherical aberration Image plane Spherical aberration causes a path length difference χ which depends on the scattering angle f 2 f 1 χ = e.g. 3λ/2
60 Depending on its phase shift, the scattered wave reinforces or weakens the exit wave exit wave = scattered wave + unscattered wave Ψ exit = ψ unscattered + iψ scattered scattered and unscattered wave are in phase: exit wave gets stronger scattered wave is shifted by π/2 = 90 (quarter of a wavelength) relative to unscattered wave: exit wave is nearly same as unscattered wave, therefore phase contrast is minimal scattered and unscattered wave are out of phase by π = 180 (half a wavelength): exit wave gets weaker
61 Optimal (Scherzer) focus The phase shift χ(θ) introduced by the spherical aberration C s of the objective lens depends on the scattering angle θ and on the amount of defocus Δf. χ(θ) = (2π/λ) [Δf θ 2 /2 - C s θ 4 /4] The spatial frequency R (measured in Å -1 ) is the reciprocal of the distance between any two points of the specimen. For small scattering angles, R θ / λ. With this approximation, the phase shift expressed as a function of R is χ(r) = (π/2) [2Δf R 2 λ - C s R 4 λ 3 ] (Scherzer formula) At Scherzer focus, the terms containing Δf and C s nearly add up to 1, and a positive phase shift of χ +π/2 applies to a wide resolution range.
62 Defocus and spherical aberration have similar but opposite effects
63 Contrast transfer in exact focus Scherzer focus high underfocus (Erikson and Klug, 1971)
64 The contrast transfer function The phase Contrast Transfer Function B(θ) of the electron microscope is defined as B(θ) = -2 sin χ(θ) (CTF) For any particular defocus Δf, the CTF indicates the range of scattering angles θ in which the object is imaged with positive (or negative) phase contrast. For scattering angles where CTF = 0, there is no phase contrast. As spherical aberration C s is constant, Δf can be adjusted to produce maximum phase contrast of ±π/2 for a particular range of scattering angles.

67 Phase contrast at high resolution is reduced (damped) by incoherence Spatial and temporal incoherence of the electron beam damp the CTF due to lens aberrations: E damping (k) = E spatial (Z,C s,α,k) E temporal (C c,δe,k) E specimen E detector. C S is the spherical aberration coefficient, C C is the coefficient for chromatical aberration Z=100 nm, C S = 3 mm, C C = 3 mm Z=100 nm, C S = 0 mm, C C = 3 mm Z=100 nm, C S = 0 mm, C C = 0 mm spatial frequency [1/nm]
