AtomicDiffractionGenerator

class diffsims.generators.diffraction_generator.AtomicDiffractionGenerator(accelerating_voltage, detector, reciprocal_mesh=False)

Bases: object

Computes electron diffraction patterns for an atomic lattice.

Parameters:

• accelerating_voltage (float, 'inf') – The accelerating voltage of the microscope in kV

• detector (list of 1D float-type arrays) – List of mesh vectors defining the (flat) detector size and sensor positions

• reciprocal_mesh (bool, optional) – If True then detector is assumed to be a reciprocal grid, else (default) it is assumed to be a real grid.

Methods

AtomicDiffractionGenerator.calculate_ed_data(...)

Calculates single electron diffraction image for particular atomic structure and probe.
