  Title Quantitative 3D Investigation of Nanoparticle Assemblies by Volumetric Segmentation of Electron Tomography Data Sets Type (up) A1 Journal article
  Year 2023 Publication The journal of physical chemistry: C : nanomaterials and interfaces Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 127 Issue 20 Pages 9725-9734  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Engineering sciences. Technology; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)  
  Abstract Morphological characterization of nanoparticle assemblies and hybrid nanomaterials is critical in determining their structure-property relationships as well as in the development of structures with desired properties. Electron tomography has become a widely utilized technique for the three-dimensional characterization of nanoparticle assemblies. However, the extraction of quantitative morphological parameters from the reconstructed volume can be a complex and labor-intensive task. In this study, we aim to overcome this challenge by automating the volumetric segmentation process applied to three-dimensional reconstructions of nanoparticle assemblies. The key to enabling automated characterization is to assess the performance of different volumetric segmentation methods in accurately extracting predefined quantitative descriptors for morphological characterization. In our methodology, we compare the quantitative descriptors obtained through manual segmentation with those obtained through automated segmentation methods, to evaluate their accuracy and effectiveness. To show generality, our study focuses on the characterization of assemblies of CdSe/CdS quantum dots, gold nanospheres and CdSe/CdS encapsulated in polymeric micelles, and silica-coated gold nanorods decorated with both CdSe/CdS or PbS quantum dots. We use two unsupervised segmentation algorithms: the watershed transform and the spherical Hough transform. Our results demonstrate that the choice of automated segmentation method is crucial for accurately extracting the predefined quantitative descriptors. Specifically, the spherical Hough transform exhibits superior performance in accurately extracting quantitative descriptors, such as particle size and interparticle distance, thereby allowing for an objective, efficient, and reliable volumetric segmentation of complex nanoparticle assemblies.

  Title Single-shot tomography of discrete dynamic objects Type (up) A1 Journal article
  Year 2024 Publication IEEE transactions on computational imaging Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 10 Issue Pages 941-952  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Engineering sciences. Technology; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)  
  Abstract This paper presents a novel method for the reconstruction of high-resolution temporal images in dynamic tomographic imaging, particularly for discrete objects with smooth boundaries that vary over time. Addressing the challenge of limited measurements per time point, we propose a technique that incorporates spatial and temporal information of the dynamic objects. Our method uses the explicit assumption of homogeneous attenuation values of discrete objects. We achieve this computationally through the application of the level-set method for image segmentation and the representation of motion via a sinusoidal basis. The result is a computationally efficient and easily optimizable variational framework that enables the reconstruction of high-quality 2D or 3D image sequences with a single projection per frame. Compared to variational regularization-based methods using similar image models, our approach demonstrates superior performance on both synthetic and pseudo-dynamic real X-ray tomography datasets. The implications of this research extend to improved visualization and analysis of dynamic processes in tomographic imaging, finding potential applications in diverse scientific and industrial domains. The supporting data and code are provided.
