Background:

Accurate wave function reconstruction is crucial for advancing live atomic resolution imaging in transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
Current reconstruction methods require further development for robustness and precision under practical imaging conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce EWR-NN, a novel neural-network-based method for wave function reconstruction.
To demonstrate the efficacy of EWR-NN using simulated and experimental data, comparing it against established techniques.

Main Methods:

Development of the EWR-NN algorithm utilizing a neural network architecture.
Validation using simulated datasets and experimental defocus series from two distinct TEM setups.
Comparative analysis against the iterative wave function reconstruction (IWFR) method.

Main Results:

EWR-NN achieves accurate wave function reconstruction from only two defocus images.
The proposed method outperforms the IWFR method in both simulated and experimental tests.
Analysis confirms EWR-NN's resilience to factors like defocus deviation, image shifts, and noise levels.

Conclusions:

EWR-NN provides a robust and accurate solution for wave function reconstruction in TEM.
The method shows significant potential for improving live atomic resolution imaging applications.
While atom column arrangements are preserved, image contrast may be affected by imaging parameters.
