2D Polyhedral Template Matching for Atomic Resolution Microscopy

SAND2024-13879O The 2D Polyhedral Template Matching for Atomic Resolution Microscopy is a suite of functions for analyzing atomic resolution electron microscopy images using the 2D polyhedral template matching (2D-PTM) method. This software analyzes atomic resolution microscopy data from electron microscopic imaging or scanning probe microscopies. The primary application is for identifying different crystal phases, crystal orientations, and defect structures obtained in such atomic resolution images. Written in MATLAB and starting from an atomic resolution image, the code identifies the positions of atomic intensity peaks. It then matches predefined structural templates to the local atomic environments. Outputs include the local structural identification, the template scaling factor and rotation angle, root-mean-squared deviation (RMSD), and centrosymmetry parameter.
