Noise reduction of low-dose electron holograms using the wavelet hidden Markov model.

ABSTRACT: The precision in electron holography studies on electrostatic and magnetic fields depends on the image quality of an electron hologram. Enhancing the image quality of electron holograms is essential for the comprehensive analysis of weak electromagnetic fields; however, extended electron beam irradiation can lead to undesirable radiation damage and contamination. Recent studies have demonstrated that noise reduction using the wavelet hidden Markov model (WHMM) can improve the precision of phase analysis for limited thin-foiled crystals. In this study, we examine the effects of WHMM-based denoising on the electron holography data of weakly charged nanoparticles collected under low-electron-dose conditions. The results indicate that effective noise reduction with the WHMM allows for a reduct
