Navigating the Nanoworld
Today’s aberration-corrected electron microscopes are changing the way materials science is done. The spectacular advances in recent years are allowing unprecedented information on atomic configurations, atomic species, their charge, bonding and local electric fields. It has become possible to navigate the nanoworld atom by atom, cataloguing defects and explaining macroscopic properties like never before. It is even possible to fabricate entirely new materials using the energy of the electron beam.
