Cryogenic Electron Microscopy on Strongly Correlated Quantum Materials

“…The behavior of the soft phonons and associated phase transitions was further related to the tolerance factor τ in perovskites, which describes the ratio of the anion and cation radii in the octahedron. Such a diffuse-scattering approach was also used to study structural modulations in trivalent (Fe,Zn,Al)-doped YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−δ . , …”

Investigation of Multiply Twins in Mn2.02Co0.98O4 Ceramic by Means of Transmission Electron Microscopy

“…Indeed, twins have long been identified in many materials, including metals, spinel semiconductors, superconductors, titanates, etc., and have attracted materials researchers’ great interest. Among the above‐mentioned materials, we note that twins in metals, superconductors and titanates are systematically studied . It is conclusion that the formation of twins and the interaction between twins and dislocations are the mainly reasons causing the strain hardening in metal materials .…”
