Another World Record
Abstract:
ORNL has achieved a new world record in electron microscopy, attaining 0.6-angstrom (Å) resolution using a 300-kilovolt Z-contrast scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) housed in a new $6 million facility. ORNL Corporate Fellow Steve Pennycook, Matt Chisolm, Albina Borisevich, and Andy Lupini, all of ORNL's Condensed Matter Sciences Division (CMSD).
