Material structure, properties, and dynamics through scanning transmission electron microscopy
Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has advanced rapidly in the last decade thanks to the ability to correct the major aberrations of the probe-forming lens. Now, atomic-sized beams are routine, even at accelerating voltages as low as 40 kV,

The effect of carbon coating on the electrochemical performance of nanosized Li
Carbon-coated Li2FeSiO4/C cathode materials have been synthesized through a modified ball-milling pro- cess. The physical characterizations of Li2FeSiO4 were conducted by using X-ray powder diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy and ...

Future Prospects of 3D Human Chromosome Imaging by Serial Block Face Scanning Electron Microscopy [PDF]
The higher order structure of human chromosomes remains to be elucidated with the 30 nm mystery still remaining. For internal structure determination, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) cannot be used as the chromosomes are too thick (approx.

A combined FEG-SEM and TEM study of silicon nanodot assembly [PDF]
Nanodots forming dense assembly on a substrate are difficult to characterize in terms of size, density, morphology and cristallinity. The present study shows how valuable information can be obtained by a combination of electron microscopy techniques.

Cathodoluminescence of silicon doped aluminum nitride with scanning transmission electron microscopy
Here, we apply cathodoluminescence in scanning transmission electron microscopy to infer the influence of dislocation strain fields on the formation of point defect complexes in Si doped AlN. In addition to identifying non-radiative recombination centers,

Synthesis and characterization of spherical amorphous alumo-silicate nanoparticles using RF thermal plasma method [PDF]
The RF thermal plasma synthesis route was used for the preparation of alumo-silicate spherical particles. Homogeneous solid mixtures of raw materials (Al2O3, SiO2 and KOH) were used as precursors.

Biological Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy: Imaging and Single Molecule Mass Determination
Scanning transmission electron microscopes can both measure the mass of single protein complexes and take amazingly clear images thereof, offering a wide range of applications in structural biology. The principle of mass measurement is presented

Analysis and applications of a heralded electron source
We analytically describe the noise properties of a heralded electron source made from a standard electron gun, a weak photonic coupler, a single photon counter, and an electron energy filter.
