Electron channeling occurs if the incident beam is parallel to the atom columns of a crystal or a particular crystal defect. In a simplified channeling theory, an expression for the exit wave of a single atom column is expressed as [1 - 3],
---------------------- [4151]
where,
r -- A two-dimensional (2-D) vector in the plane at the exit face of the crystal ( = (x,y)T ), which is perpendicular to the incident beam direction
z -- The crystal thickness
C1s -- The excitation coefficient for plane wave incidence ()
E0 -- The incident electron energy
λ -- The electron wavelength
Φ1s(r) -- The lowest energy bound state of the atom column
E1s -- The energy of the lowest energy bound state
