Nowadays, most studies utilizing diffraction contrast tomography, either in the lab or at the synchrotron, have concentrated on relatively low-aspect-ratio samples, usually rectangular or cylindrical ...

This degree of magnification and resolution is made possible by the use of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, or FIB-SEM. Ordinary microscopes will not produce the same results. Curious ...

(Top) Picture of thermal measurement setup in the Goodson lab, Stanford University. (bottom) The sample is placed on a high-precision stage and raster scanned to produce 2D images of the thermal ...

Ceramics often have microstructure and grain sizes that affect material performance. It is possible to optimize microstructure and grain boundaries with ceramic processing parameters for specific ...
