摘要
We investigated the dopant distribution in Ca-doped alpha-SiAlON by using high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy and a multi-slice image simulation. Our results showed that the electron wave propagated by hopping to adjacent Si(Al) and N(O) columns. The image intensities of the Ca columns had wider dispersions than other columns. To estimate the Ca distribution in the bulk material, we performed a Monte Carlo atomic simulation of the alpha-SiAlON with Ca dopants. A model including a short-range Coulomb-like repulsive force between adjacent Ca atoms reproduced the dispersion of the intensity distribution of the Ca column in the experimental image.
