Which mechanism primarily limits spatial resolution in electron microscope image contrast functions?

A)Chromatic aberration causes point spread
B)Specimen drift limits integration time
C)Electron scattering broadens beam profile
D)Vibrational noise reduces focus quality

💡 Explanation

When electrons pass through a lens with chromatic aberration, different energy electrons are refracted differently causing a point spread function which blurs the image, limiting resolution in the contrast function. Therefore chromatic aberration causes point spread limiting resolution; drift, scattering, and vibration have secondary effects.
