VR-assisted segmentation of tomography elaborated defects in self-assembled colloidal clusters
In a recent paper published in ACS Nano, researchers from particle technology and theory have worked together with CENEM and it’s research training group members to decrypt the free energy landscape of colloidal clusters in sphere confinement, using the model system of polystyrene (PS) particles. This work sheds light to understand the magics of self-assembling […]

Advanced liquid cell architecture for high performance in situ transmission electron microscopy in materials sciences
Liquid phase electron microscopy is a powerful technique for investigating processes directly on site with high spatial and temporal resolution. This particular in situ technique was shown to be suitable for application in materials sciences, energy storage and biology. In a recent publication, researchers of the CENEM research training group GRK 1896 in collaboration with […]

In situ microscopy – a key to unravel growth and functional properties of nanowires
Transition metal oxides, such as TiO2, ZnO or MoO2, and transition metal chalcogenides like WS2 or MoS2 represent two classes of functional materials, both hold great promise for applications in nanotechnology, ranging from energy storage to microelectronics. In a recent work “Transforming layered MoS2 into functional MoO2” by CENEM researchers Lilian Vogl, Peter Schweizer, Mingjian […]

Mechanisms of asymmetric tension/compression creep deformation in a Co-base superalloy revealed
The tension/compression asymmetries of materials, i.e., changing the mechanism loading directions while keeping all other parameters identical, is particularly interesting as it provides insight into the elementary defect mechanisms. In a recent work published in Acta Materialia (click here), CENEM researchers Malte Lenz and coworkers have just revealed this mechanism in a Co-base superalloy, a […]The tension/compression asymmetries of materials, i.e., changing the mechanism loading directions while keeping all other parameters identical, is particularly interesting as it provides insight into the elementary defect mechanisms.

3D electrostatic field measured at an electron nano-emitter
Local electrostatic field at sharp field emission tips is key to answer fundamental questions of how the field interacts with these tips. Despite a long history of study, three-dimensional (3D) electrostatic fields at nanometer resolution around sharp tips have not been experimentally quantified. Since the electrostatic fields in electron field emission and atom probe tomography […]
