Description

We combine chemical lattice imaging with digital pattern recognition to obtain, at near-atomic resolution, quantitative maps of the compositional change across GaAs/AlGaAs interfaces of the highest optical quality. Our results show these interfaces to be atomically rough, on scales finer than suggested by optical measurements. (author) 5 refs., 3 figs
