Comparison of different simulations of the specimen exit wave of TMV protein embedded in ice. The total specimen thickness Δzspecimen = 19.5 nm (with no water molecules on the top or bottom surfaces). Only a part of the simulation is displayed due to the symmetry of TMV, as depicted by the red square in the top-right schematic drawing. The phase and modulus of different exit waves are shown in grey scale (min black and max white, as indicated in the bottom-left panels of each part) for (a)–(e) and (f)–(i), respectively. (a) Exit wave of the PO transmission function. (b), (f) Exit wave of the WPO approximation. (c), (g) Exit wave of the PO after an additional propagation of half the specimen thickness, 0.5ΔzTMV. (d), (h) Exit wave of the WPO after an additional propagation of 0.5ΔzTMV. (e), (i) Exit wave of a multislice simulation with 120 slices. The scale bar is 25 Å.
