It is shown that it is possible to obtain structural information from small (<100 nm) phthalocyanine crystals by using crystallographic direct phasing methods applied to electron diffraction data. This technique is both quantitative and does not suffer from the difficulties associated with high-resolution electron microscopy. Structural information has been obtained from both tetra- and octa chloro-copper phthalocyanines, and the results compared with the hydrogenated and perchloro members of the series.

Atomic positions for Y atoms were determined by using high-resolution electron microscopy and electron diffraction. A slow-scan charge-coupled device camera which had high linearity and electron sensitivity was used to record high-resolution images and electron diffraction patterns digitally. Crystallographic image processing was applied for image analysis, which provided more accurate, averaged Y atom positions. In addition, atomic disordering positions in YB56 were detected from the differential images between observed and simulated images based on x-ray data, which were B24 clusters around the Y-holes. The present work indicates that the structure analysis combined with digital high-resolution electron microscopy, electron diffraction, and differential images is useful for the evaluation of atomic positions and disordering in the boron-based crystals.
