  1. For the Z-direction, the corrected slice spacings are given. The voxel sizes are of the same order of magnitude as the resolution determined by the diameter of the electron beam and the radius of the SE-emission region for illumination with the narrowest beam (both approx. 2 nm, see Supplementary Methods 1.2.
