“Artifact Reduction Based on Sinogram Interpolation for the 3D Reconstruction of Nanoparticles Using Electron Tomography”. Sentosun K, Lobato I, Bladt E, Zhang Y, Palenstijn WJ, Batenburg KJ, Van Dyck D, Bals S, Particle and particle systems characterization 34, 1700287 (2017). http://doi.org/10.1002/ppsc.201700287
Abstract: Electron tomography is a well-known technique providing a 3D characterization of the morphology and chemical composition of nanoparticles. However, several reasons hamper the acquisition of tilt series with a large number of projection images, which deteriorate the quality of the 3D reconstruction. Here, an inpainting method that is based on sinogram interpolation is proposed, which enables one to reduce artifacts in the reconstruction related to a limited tilt series of projection images. The advantages of the approach will be demonstrated for the 3D characterization of nanoparticles using phantoms and several case studies.

“Anisotropic magnetism and spin-dependent transport in Co nanoparticle embedded ZnO thin films”. Li DY, Zeng YJ, Pereira LMC, Batuk D, Hadermann J, Zhang YZ, Ye ZZ, Temst K, Vantomme A, Van Bael MJ, Van Haesendonck C;, Journal of applied physics 114, 033909 (2013). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.4815877
Abstract: Oriented Co nanoparticles were obtained by Co ion implantation in crystalline ZnO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of elliptically shaped Co precipitates with nanometer size, which are embedded in the ZnO thin films, resulting in anisotropic magnetic behavior. The low-temperature resistance of the Co-implanted ZnO thin films follows the Efros-Shklovskii type variable-range-hopping. Large negative magnetoresistance (MR) exceeding 10% is observed in a magnetic field of 1 T at 2.5K and the negative MR survives up to 250K (0.3%). The negative MR reveals hysteresis as well as anisotropy that correlate well with the magnetic properties, clearly demonstrating the presence of spin-dependent transport. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.

“Advanced imaging and simulations of precipitate interfaces in aluminium alloys and their role in phase transformations”. Zhang Z, Bourgeois L, Zhang Y, Rosalie JM, Medhekar N, MATEC web of conferences
T2 –, 17th International Conference on Aluminium Alloys (ICAA), October 26-29, 2020 , 09003 (2020). http://doi.org/10.1051/MATECCONF/202032609003
Abstract: Precipitation is accompanied by the formation and migration of heterophase interfaces. Using the combined approach of advanced imaging and atomistic simulations, we studied the precipitate-matrix interfaces in various aluminium alloy systems, aiming to resolve their detailed atomic structures and illuminate their role in phase transformations.

“Achieving High Moisture Tolerance in Pseudohalide Perovskite Nanocrystals for Light-Emitting Diode Application”. Bhatia H, Keshavarz M, Martin C, Van Gaal L, Zhang Y, de Coen B, Schrenker NJ, Valli D, Ottesen M, Bremholm M, Van de Vondel J, Bals S, Hofkens J, Debroye E, ACS Applied Optical Materials 1, 1184 (2023). http://doi.org/10.1021/acsaom.3c00096
Abstract: The addition of potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) to the FAPbBr3 structure and subsequent post-treatment of nanocrystals (NCs) lead to high quantum confinement, resulting in a photoluminescent quantum yield (PLQY) approaching unity and microsecond decay times. This synergistic approach demonstrated exceptional stability under humid conditions, retaining 70% of the PLQY for over a month, while the untreated NCs degrade within 24 h. Additionally, the devices incorporating the post-treated NCs displayed 1.5% external quantum efficiency (EQE), a 5-fold improvement over untreated devices. These results provide promising opportunities for the use of perovskites in moisture-stable optoelectronics.

“25 years of Reticular Chemistry”. Freund R, Canossa S, Cohen SM, Yan W, Deng H, Guillerm V, Eddaoudi M, Madden DG, Fairen-Jimenez D, Lyu H, Macreadie LK, Ji Z, Zhang Y, Wang B, Haase F, Wöll C, Zaremba O, Andreo J, Wuttke S, Diercks CS, Angewandte Chemie-International Edition , anie.202101644 (2021). http://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202101644
Abstract: At its core, reticular chemistry has translated the precision and expertise of organic and inorganic synthesis to the solid state. While initial excitement over metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) was undoubtedly fueled by their unprecedented porosity and surface areas, the most profound scientific innovation of the field has been the elaboration of design strategies for the synthesis of extended crystalline solids through strong directional bonds. In this contribution we highlight the different classes of reticular materials that have been developed, how these frameworks can be functionalized and how complexity can be introduced into their backbones. Finally, we show how the structural control over these materials is being extended from the molecular scale to their crystal morphology and shape on the nanoscale, all the way to their shaping on the bulk scale.
