THE electron diffraction patterns of thin films of alloys sometimes show fine detail that is not fully understood 1. Empirical methods of solution are not easy to apply in view of the large number of ...

MARK, Motz and Trillat 1 have shown that traces of grease can give rise to extra rings in electron diffraction patterns from metal films. In agreement with them, we have found that the spacings of ...

What is Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)? Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), also known as backscatter Kikuchi diffraction (BKD), is a powerful characterization technique used to analyze ...

insights from industryDr. Stuart WrightSenior ScientistGatan/EDAX In this interview, Dr. Stuart Wright, a Senior Scientist at Gatan/EDAX, talks to AZoMaterials about the versatile applications of ...

Last November, Quantum Design and NanoMEGAS invited industry and research professionals to learn more about the theoretical and practical applications of Precession Electron Diffraction (PED).

(a) Schematics of the experimental setup for electron and photon scattering. (b) An atomic model of the pattern formed by the twisted bilayer graphene (30°-tBLG) crystal structure. (c) A low-energy ...

The (a) Raman measurement clearly indicates the predominance of CNTs with the (8, 4) structure in the sample prepared using WC as catalysts. (b) Both transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging and ...

The high sensitivity of the reflection electron microscopy (REM) technique to small changes in the crystal structure and composition of the top surface layers of various crystalline materials makes it ...

Back in 2010, crystallographer Tim Gruene heard a scientist from drugmaker Novartis say something that stuck with him. The pharmaceutical giant had amassed a collection of around 2 million small ...
