Abstract

A two-dimensional Fourier transformation, FT, is used to isolate two different lattice structures within one scanning probe microscope, SPM, image. The isolated structures are then used to create a two-color map that encodes the presence of these structures within the image. The color map is normalized in brightness and then used to color-code the original black and white SPM data. The distribution of different structures becomes obvious, while all original brightness information is preserved in this combined image.
