  • Measurements of the lattice parameters of albite and oligoclase from electron diffraction patterns with the Au internal standard resulted in errors of less than 1 %. An electron diffraction map for natural oligoclase samples was constructed and 11 stations of zone-axes diffraction patterns were obtained. This process is indispensible for reliable TEM studies of triclinic feldspars. Utilizing the [001] cleavage plane of feldspar and the double-tilting TEM holder the following information is obtainable: Si-Al ordering and chemistry of alkali feldspars could be estimated from the $\alpha$* - * plot, where * is measured from the [001] orientation, while $\alpha$* is measured from the [100] orientation. Si-Al ordering of Na-rich plagioclase could be estimated from * [001] patterns. Structure and chemistry or Na-poor plagioclase could be estimated from existence of e-reflections, their intensity variations as well as their positional changes.
