ABSTRACT
Electron tomography (ET) has become an important tool for understanding the 3D nature of nanomaterials, with recent developments enabling not only scalar reconstructions of electron density, but also vector reconstructions of magnetic fields. However, whilst new signals have been incorporated into the ET toolkit, the acquisition schemes have largely kept to conventional single-axis tilt series for scalar ET, and dual-axis schemes for magnetic vector ET. In this work, we explore the potential of using multi-axis tilt schemes including conical and spiral tilt schemes to improve reconstruction fidelity in scalar and magnetic vector ET. Through a combination of systematic simulations and a proof-of-concept experiment, we show that spiral and conical tilt schemes have the potential to produce substantially improved reconstructions, laying the foundations of a new approach to electron tomography acquisition and reconstruction.
