Looking at Soil as It Is: Evolution of Microscopic Soil Characterization From Kubiëna to Artificial Intelligence

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
We provide a historic overview of microscopic soil structure characterization from its founding father, Walter Kubiëna, to several technical revolutions like automation, digitalization, and artificial intelligence. In addition to technical advancements, we explore how concepts and research questions have evolved in time.

NanoSIMS-Analyse und hochauflösende Elektronenmikroskopie an präsolaren Silikaten aus roten Riesensternen und Supernovaexplosionen [PDF]

, 2009
This thesis deals with the analysis of “presolar” silicates and oxides by high resolution mass spectrometry and electron microscopy techniques. This “stardust” was identified by its extreme oxygen isotopic anomalies, which point to nucleosynthetic ...

Formation of a nucleoplasmic reticulum requires de novo assembly of nascent phospholipids and shows preferential incorporation of nascent lamins

Scientific Reports, 2017
Structure of interphase cell nuclei remains dynamic and can undergo various changes of shape and organisation, in health and disease. The double-membraned envelope that separates nuclear genetic material from the rest of the cell frequently includes deep,

Correlative chemical and elemental nano-imaging of morphology and disorder at the nacre-prismatic region interface in Pinctada margaritifera

Scientific Reports, 2023
Understanding biomineralization relies on imaging chemically heterogeneous organic–inorganic interfaces across a hierarchy of spatial scales. Further, organic minority phases are often responsible for emergent inorganic structures from the atomic ...

Comparison of different X‐ray‐based scanning electron microscopy methods to detect sub‐nanometre ultra‐thin InAs layers deposited on top of GaAs

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract We compare three different methods of X‐ray analysis in a scanning electron microscope (SEM): energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), wavelength‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (WDX) and micro X‐ray fluorescence (μXRF). These methods are all applied to the same gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafer with a 0.8 nm layer of indium arsenide (InAs) on ...

Elemental imaging at the nanoscale: NanoSIMS and complementary techniques for element localisation in plants.

, 2011
The ability to locate and quantify elemental distributions in plants is crucial to understanding plant metabolisms, the mechanisms of uptake and transport of minerals and how plants cope with toxic elements or elemental deficiencies.

(INVITED)Study of dopant distribution in Cr4+:YAG transparent ceramics and its use as passively Q-switching media in Nd:YAG laser delivering 38 mJ per pulse

Optical Materials: X, 2021
In this work, the role of elaboration parameters (i.e. chemical composition and heat treatments) of Cr:YAG ceramics on their microstructural, optical and laser properties was investigated.

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.

Reciprocal transport of carbon and nitrogen between plants and the hyphosphere microbiome in a temperate grassland

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Overview of the experimental design and 13CO2 pulse‐labeling approach in the field. Summary Despite its relevance for plant nutrient acquisition, the role of the hyphosphere in structuring fungal–bacterial networks and mediating carbon–nitrogen (C–N) exchange under field conditions remains unclear.
