title: STEM_CELL: a software tool for electron microscopy: part 1--simulations.
abstract: The software STEM_CELL, here presented, is a useful tool for (S) TEM simulation. In particular innovative solutions are presented in (1) the supercell manipulation and parameters setting (2) simulation execution through the modified Kirkland routines (3) simulation post-processing with extended output and comprehensive graphic tools (4) image contrast interpretation through a strain channeling equation accounting for strain effects in STEM-ADF.
