Getting Started
Welcome to the Getting Started section of the 4D-Explorer documentation. This section is designed to help you quickly get up and running with the 4D-Explorer software. Whether you are a new user or looking to refresh your knowledge, this guide will walk you through the essential steps to install, configure, and start using 4D-Explorer.
4D-Explorer is a powerful tool for analyzing four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM) data. It provides a comprehensive suite of features for importing, managing, and visualizing 4D-STEM datasets, as well as performing advanced data reconstruction and calibration.
In this section, you will find detailed instructions on:
Data Management: Get started with creating and managing HDF5 files and groups.
Importing 4D-STEM Datasets: Learn how to import raw 4D-STEM datasets into HDF5 files.
Executing Tasks: Understand how to monitor and manage tasks such as dataset import and reconstruction.
Viewing 4D-STEM Datasets: Explore how to visualize 4D-STEM datasets and their diffraction patterns.
Reconstruction: Learn how to perform data reconstruction, such as creating virtual images and ADF images.
Using Reconstructed Images as Previews: Understand how to use reconstructed images to explore 4D-STEM datasets.
By the end of this section, you should have a solid understanding of how to use 4D-Explorer to analyze your 4D-STEM data effectively.
