In this study, high resolution electron microscopy techniques, such as Focused Ion Beam (FIB), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) allowed for revealing micro/nano features within human dentin with high definition and accuracy.

Understanding of catalytic processes requires detailed knowledge of the catalyst. As heterogeneous catalysis is a surface phenomena the understanding of the atomic surface structure of both the active material and the support material is of utmost importance. This work is a high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) study of different phases found in a used automobile catalytic converter.The high resolution micrographs were obtained with a JEM-4000EX working with a structural resolution better than 0.17 nm and equipped with a Gatan 622 TV-camera with an image intensifier. Some work (e.g. EDS-analysis and diffraction) was done with a JEM-2000FX equipped with a Link AN10000 EDX spectrometer. The catalytic converter in this study has been used under normal driving conditions for several years and has also been poisoned by using leaded fuel. To prepare the sample, parts of the monolith were crushed, dispersed in methanol and a drop of the dispersion was placed on the holey carbon grid.

ABSTRACTQuantum dot structures containing 2 and 7 layers of small coherent InAs clusters embedded into a Si single crystal matrix were grown by MBE. The structure of these clusters was investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The crystallographic quality of the structure severely depends on the substrate temperature, growth sequence, and the geometrical parameters of the sample. The investigation demonstrates that Si can incorporate a limited volume of InAs in a form of small coherent clusters about 3 nm in diameter. If the deposited InAs layer exceeds a critical thickness, large dislocated InAs precipitates are formed during Si overgrowth accumulating the excess of InAs.

ABSTRACTThe structure of the silicon-sapphire interface of CVD silicon on a (1102) sapphire substrate has been studied in crøss section by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Multibeam images of the interface region have been obtained where both the silicon and sapphire lattices are directly resolved. The interface is observed to be planar and abrupt to the instrument resolution limit of 3 Å. No interfacial phase is evident. Defects are inhomogeneously distributed at the interface: relatively defect-free regions are observed in the silicon layer in addition to regions with high concentration of defects.

ABSTRACTThe interface structure in a Ti/TiN multilayer material has been investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). It was shown that the α-Ti and β-TiN layers consisted of many cylindrical crystals growing along the close packed directions normal to the surface of a stainless steel. There existed specific orientation relationship at the Ti/TiN interfaces without transition layers: (111)TiN ‖ (001)Ti, [110]TiN ‖ [100]Ti. However there was no such orientation relationship at the Ti/TiN interfaces with TixN (x >1) transition layers.

ABSTRACTThe decomposition of Ni ∼ 11.5 at.% Ti single crystals was studied for an ageing temperature of 540°C. In this alloy, coherent ordered zones of γ′-Ni3Ti (Cu3Au structure) are formed prior to the stable n precipitates. The early stages of zone formation were investigated by in-beam SANS and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Electron diffraction, high resolution electron microscopy, TEM analysis of dislocation arrangements in samples deformed after ageing and X-ray measurements of the integrated intensity at L12 superstructure positions show that ordered regions already appear in quenched samples, whereas compositional changes, as determined by SANS measurements, occur only upon ageing.
