S - 38 50 Years of the Cowley-Moodie Multislice Theory
Chairs: Philip Nakashima & Andrew Johnson
The power of electron microscopy in scientific research lies in the extremely strong interaction of electrons with matter. This interaction, however, also made accurate description of electron scattering a formidable problem that denied fuller exploitation of electron microscopy. This session celebrates the 50th anniversary of the solution to this problem by John Cowley and Alex Moodie. They brought to the world an analytical and canonical description of N-beam scattering now known throughout microscopy, crystallography and materials science as the "Multislice" formalism. This monumental contribution to physical optics has gone well beyond electron diffraction and microscopy and into X-ray and visible light scattering. The achievements of Cowley and Moodie gave Australia leadership in the fields of electron microscopy and crystallography and were recognised by the International Union of Crystallography through the inaugural Ewald Prize in 1987. We are very fortunate to have Prof. Alexander F. Moodie, FAA, and Prof. David Cockayne, FRS, as invited speakers in this session. Contributions are welcome in any area of research that has benefited from or further developed the Multislice approach, including analytical theory and practical applications.
