    Abstract

    Thin foils of niobium and tantalum pentoxide, prepared by recrys-tallization of amorphous films, and which have so called shear structures, have been examined by means of transmission electron microscopy. The long spacing observed in these oxides, as well by direct imaging, as by electron diffraction, is found to depend on the mode of preparation; in particular on the ambient during recrystallization.
