    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    Understanding matter at the dynamic and microscopic levels is fundamental for our ability to predict, control and ultimately design new functional properties for emerging technologies. Reaching such an understanding, however, has traditionally been difficult due to limited experimental methodologies that can simultaneously image both in space and time. Ultrafast transmission electron...

    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    The scattering of the fast electrons by a sample in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) results in a measurable signal and also leads to sample damage. In an extreme case, the damage can be severe and can proceed faster than data can be collected. The fundamental limit on whether a measurement can be performed is set by the interaction cross section and collection efficiency for the...

    The terahertz scanning tunneling microscope (THz-STM) is a new imaging and spectroscopy tool that is capable of measuring picosecond electron dynamics at the nanoscale. Free-space THz pulses are commonly used for non-contact conductivity measurements, but they are diffraction limited to millimeter length scales. We can overcome this limit by coupling THz pulses to a sharp metal tip through...

    Structural disorder in calcium carbonate materials is a topic of intense current interest in the fields of biomineralization, archaeological science, and geochemistry. In these fields, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a standard material characterization tool because it can clearly distinguish between amorphous calcium carbonate and calcite. Earlier theoretical work based on...
