3-D Atomic Images Around Eu3+ in CaF2 Reconstructed from Experimental Hologram.

Caption

Nearest Ca2+ images are split into two parts due to the extra positive charge by Eu3+. The interstitial F- image is observed between Ca2+ images. The additional F- is needed for the compensation of the excessive charge. Dashed circles indicate original positions of Ca atoms without doping Eu.
