This project aims to develop a new tool to measure the 3-D distribution of atoms within nanoparticles. For the rational design of nanoparticles, it is necessary to compare the atomic scale structure to the resulting performance. But this information is hard to access. This projects aims to develop new methods so that atom probe microscopy can be applied to experimentally measure the precise 3-D location and identity of the individual atoms within nanoparticles, and apply them in the development of alloy catalyst nanoparticles that could make the sustainable production of liquid fuels from biomass commercially viable. These new tools would be useful across the wide range of engineering applications for which nanomaterials are currently being developed.

该项目旨在开发一种新的工具来测量纳米颗粒内原子的三维分布。为了合理设计纳米粒子，有必要将原子尺度结构与所得性能进行比较。但这些信息很难获取。该项目旨在开发新的方法，以便原子探针显微镜可以应用于实验测量纳米颗粒内单个原子的精确三维位置和身份，并将其应用于合金催化剂纳米颗粒的开发，从而使生物质液体燃料的可持续生产具有商业可行性。这些新工具将有助于目前正在开发的纳米材料的广泛工程应用。
