title: Digital high-resolution electron microscopy of atomic disordering in YB56
abstract: Despite of the difficulty in determining the atomic arrangement of light elements and doping atoms in the solid clusters, it is believed that the high-resolution images should have 'some' information on disordering, ordering, and doping atomic positions in these materials. In the present work, the information for disordering of atomic positions in YB56 was obtained from digital high-resolution images. The arrangement of Y atoms was also directly imaged and quantified. The present work indicates that the atomic detection by digital high-resolution images is very useful for evaluation of local structure in the ceramic materials with light elements such as boron.
