Usually, phase information in conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is lost. A fully recorded electron wave function with its amplitude and phase would allow for post-acquisition removal of residual aberrations and thus an accurate quantitative description of a material’s atomic structure.

Here, we present electron wave functions reconstructed from high-resolution electron holograms of two-dimensional WSe₂. We show that a very precise knowledge of microscope and sample-related parameters, such as image spread, Debye-Waller factor and specimen tilt, can be obtained by comparing experimental wave functions with simulations. Furthermore, we are able to remove residual aberrations from the experimental data, which enables a quantitative description of the atomic structure, including the detection of structural defects.
