Subnanometer Crystalline Regions using Coherent Electron Microdiffraction

这项资助旨在探索定量分析方法， 扫描中小于1纳米的小区域 透射电镜 在这次更新中， 研究人员继续他们的定量研究， 显微衍射数据的解释结合最近的 扫描透射电子显微镜的进展 纳米晶体、层状材料和颗粒/网络结构 通过扫描透射电子显微镜 显微镜技术 改进仪器和技术 用于表征小颗粒和薄膜， 以及推进对催化剂性质的理解。

This grant explores quantitative approaches to the analysis of small regions less than one nanometer in the scanning transmission electron microscope. In this renewal of the research the investigators continue their quantitative interpretation of microdiffraction data combined with recent advances in scanning transmission electron microscope. Nanocrystals, layered materials, and particle/network structures are subject to analysis by scanning transmission electron microscope techniques. Improved instrumentation and techniques for characterizing small particles and thin films should result as well as advancing understanding of the nature of catalysts.
