Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has emerged as a uniquely powerful
tool for structural and functional imaging of materials on the atomic level. Driven by …

Fundamentally understanding the complex electrochemical reactions that are associated
with energy devices (eg, rechargeable batteries, fuel cells and electrolyzers) has attracted …

Catalysts are the primary facilitator in many dynamic processes. Therefore, a thorough
understanding of these processes has vast implications for a myriad of energy systems. The …

Platinum-based heterogeneous catalysts are critical to many important commercial chemical
processes, but their efficiency is extremely low on a per metal atom basis, because only the …

For each generation of semiconductors, the issue of doping techniques is always placed at
the top of the priority list since it determines whether a material can be used in the electronic …

This review discusses how low-energy valence excitations created by swift electrons can
render information on the optical response of structured materials with unmatched spatial …

Two‐dimensional layered graphene‐like crystals including transition‐metal dichalcogenides
(TMDs) have received extensive research interest due to their diverse electronic …

Strain engineering enables modification of the properties of thin films using the stress from
the substrates on which they are grown. Strain may be relaxed, however, and this can also …

Research on biomaterials has been growing in the last few years due to the clinical needs in
organs and tissues replacement and regeneration. In addition, cancer nanomedicine has …

Using a highly coherent focused electron probe in a fifth-order aberration-corrected
transmission electron microscope, we report on resolving a crystal spacing less than 50 pm …
