Abstract
This paper analyzes the features of the monitoring of the reserving po wer of transmission electron microscopes from the image of point struc tures in amorphous films when phase-contrast imaging is used. It shows that, because fullerenelike particles 0.5-1 nm in diameter form in a carbon film 5-10 nm thick, it is impossible to detect finer structures on the image.
