Cubic boron nitride: an experimental and theoretical ELNES study

Abstract

A comparison between experimental and theoretical electron Energy Loss Near Edge Structure (ELNES) of B and N K-edges in cubic boron nitride is presented. The electron energy loss spectra of cubic boron nitride particles were measured using a scanning transmission electron microscope. The theoretical calculation of the ELNES was performed within the framework of density functional theory including single particle core-hole effects. It is found that experimental and calculated ELNES of both the B and N K-edges in cubic boron nitride show excellent agreement.
