There has been considerable interest in characterizing the electronic and chemical properties of interfaces and grain boundries at high spatial resolution. This abstract describes a technique which utilizes the energy dispersion of surface plasmons in the transmission electron energy loss spectrum to evaluate the local dielectric constant variation across interfaces. This technique is shown to yield extremely high spatial resolution.We have been conducting studies of interfaces in a VG HB-5 STEM located at NRRFSS which is equipped with a high resolution electron energy loss analyzer. In STEM, using small probes, a typical surface plasmon excited by 100 keV electrons (Al for example) reaches its asymptotic energy value at a scattering angle between.3 and.4 mr. Since we are convoluting the incident angular distribution with the surface plasmon intensities integrated over a collection aperture, the surface plasmon excitation energies are given by their asymptotic (in k-space) energy values. These asymptotic energy excitations are very sensitive functions of the thickness and dielectric constant [eg, 2-5] of the surrounding medium.
