Use of an advanced in situ electron microscope that enables atoms within nanoparticles to be closely observed under a wide range of conditions is aiding research led by Professor Peter Crozier to explore ways to improve materials used in many engineering and related technological applications. Standing with Crozier (second from left) in an Arizona State University microscopy facility are others involved in the research, material science and engineering doctoral students Yifan Wang (far left) and Blake Dorame (far right), along with doctoral student Mai Tan (sitting at left) and Piyush Haluai (sitting at right), a research engineer in ASU’s Eyring Materials Center.
