Once thought impossible, quasicrystals revealed a hidden order that challenges our understanding of materials. Their ...

Description: Electron diffraction patterns for single crystal and polycrystalline materials are displayed on a CRT screen. A Welch model 2639 'Electron Diffraction tube' is used in an experiment in ...

SAED is particularly useful for studying the local crystal structure, orientation, and phase identification of nanomaterials. CBED is another TEM-based technique that uses a convergent electron beam ...

The crystal lattice introduces a powerful new ... as we have described. Electron diffraction patterns can also be interpreted 52 or inverted 53 to obtain images of strain, again on a length ...

Prof. Dan Shechtman of the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology made the discovery that would later earn him the 2011 ...

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 ...

Discovery of stable single-electron covalent bond in carbon compound validates a century-old theory Covalent bonds, in which two atoms are bound together by sharing a pair of electrons, ...

Correlation between cryo-transmission electron microscope (TEM ... b) Relative positions of molecules derived from the X-ray diffraction crystal structure are overlaid (brown) on the TEM image.

Spherical indexing is very effective for samples where traditional indexing struggles, such as in highly deformed materials.
