Electron diffraction methods have emerged as powerful tools for elucidating the atomic structures of a wide range of materials. Among these methods, cryo‐electron microscopy and microcrystal electron ...

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).

With the demand for high-performnce materials increasing, it has become necessary to optimize their structural properties at the nanoscale, underscoring the importance of systematic and routine ...

A collaborative team from the Rosalind Franklin Institute, the University of Oxford, and Diamond Light Source has developed a breakthrough method that makes it possible to image very small proteins ...

Multidimensional electron microscopy refers to a family of advanced electron microscopy techniques that extend conventional imaging beyond static, two-dimensional pictures. Instead of recording ...

Could you start by explaining your background in crystallography and how you began using the Rigaku Synergy-ED system? Fraser: I began my journey into crystallography at the University of Edinburgh in ...

(Nanowerk News) Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials whose structure resembles a scaffold of beams around a large empty space; this internal space can be used to store ...

Electron-beam inspection is proving to be indispensable for finding critical defects at sub-5nm dimensions. The challenge now is how to speed up the process to make it economically palatable to fabs.

TEM works by accelerating electrons, typically with energies between 80 and 300 kV, and directing them through a specimen thin enough for electron transmission. Because of their very short wavelength ...

Electron techniques encompass a set of experimental methods that exploit the wave–particle duality and charge of electrons to probe, image, or modify matter at microscopic to atomic scales. Key ...
