Fundamentally understanding the complex electrochemical reactions that are associated
with energy devices (eg, rechargeable batteries, fuel cells and electrolyzers) has attracted …

Micro-and nanomechanical testing has seen a rapid development over the last decade with
miniaturized test rigs and MEMS-based devices providing access to the mechanical …

Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is widely used for imaging, diffraction,
and spectroscopy of materials down to atomic resolution. Recent advances in detector …

Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) allows for imaging, diffraction, and
spectroscopy of materials on length scales ranging from microns to atoms. By using a high …

We report the exfoliation of graphite in aqueous solutions under high shear rate [∼ 108 s–1]
turbulent flow conditions, with a 100% exfoliation yield. The material is stabilized without …

Despite persistent and extensive observations of crystals with chiral shapes, the
mechanisms underlying their formation are not well understood. Although past studies …

Conspectus Scanning electron nanobeam diffraction, or 4D-STEM (four-dimensional
scanning transmission electron microscopy), is a flexible and powerful approach to elucidate …

The past decade has seen rapid advances in direct detector technology for electron
microscopy. Direct detectors are now having an impact on a number of techniques in …

We report on the development of a nanometer scale strain mapping technique by means of
scanning nano-beam electron diffraction. Only recently possible due to fast acquisition with …

Chemical short-range order (SRO) within a nominally single-phase solid solution is known
to affect the mechanical properties of alloys. While SRO has been indirectly related to …
