Description
We have observed a strong (2%) angular modulation of the total backscattered conversion electron yield, measured as a function of the incidence angle of the 14.4keV γ rays from a 57Co Moessbauer source irradiating thin epitaxial 57Fe film grown on MgO(001). The measured 2D pattern is the first hologram of the local surrounding of the absorbing nuclei obtained due to nuclear resonant scattering of γ rays. The real space holographic reconstruction shows distinct features corresponding to the nearest neighbor sites in the bcc α -Fe structure. copyright 1997 The American Physical Society
