FDOQ6674128 simuating TEM images of an unstrained crystal by numerically solving the Darwin–Howie–Whelan equation describing the electron propagation, named after Archibald Howie, Charles Galton Darwin, Michael J. Whelan

Defining Formula: $\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}z}{\psi }_{𝐠}(z)& =2\mathrm{i}\pi s_{𝐠}{\psi }_{𝐠}(z)+\frac{\mathrm{i}\pi }{{\rho }_{𝐠}}\sum _{𝐡\in {\Lambda }_m^{*}}{U}_{𝐠\mathbf{-}𝐡}{\psi }_{𝐡}(z)\\ s_g& =-\frac{g\cdot (2k_0+g)}{2n\cdot (k_0+g)}\end{array}$

$U_g$ represents electric potential Fourier coefficients

${\Lambda }_m^{*}$ represents reciprocal lattice

${\psi }_g$ represents amplitude of electron wave

$g$ represents reciprocal lattice vectors

$k_0$ represents wave vector of an electron

$n$ represents unit normal vector

$s_g$ represents excitation error
