Furthermore, their method employed a skillfull approach for deriving the excitation amplitude and block diagonalization in the eigenvalue equation. In the present work, we extend their scheme to a layer-by-layer representation for application to inhomogeneous crystals that include precipitates, defects and atomic displacement. Calculations for a multi-layer sample of Si-Sb-Si were performed by multiplying Allen et al.'s block-diagonalized matrices. Electron intensities within the sample and EDX STEM images, as an example of the inelastic scattering, were calculated at various conditions. From the calculations, 3-dimensional STEM analysis was considered., Ultramicroscopy, 109(9), pp.1203-1209; 2009}, pages = {1203--1209}, title = {Bloch-wave-based STEM image simulation with layer-by-layer representation.}, volume = {109}, year = {2009} }
