During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

In geology, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is a powerful tool for the observation and analysis of microstructures and for phase identification. The EBSD system, by Oxford Instruments, ...

Using short laser pulses, researchers have imaged the exact moment an ammonia molecule bends and sheds a hydrogen atom.

Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...

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).

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 ...

For a crystal-clear view of cutting-edge science, step into Brandon Mercado’s lab in the basement of Kline Chemistry Laboratory. But there’s a new kid in town. CBIC’s Structural Science Facility now ...

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 ...

Ptychography is an area-by-area scanning method that uses constant, coherent illumination to scan a region of a sample in several adjacent and overlapping locations. The dispersed radiation is ...
