Highlights

Professor Buttrey and grad student, Bill Pyrz looking at a bright-field STEM image of a BiNi particle using the JEOL2010F transmission electron microscope.
View of polycrystalline diffraction rings from BiNi nanoparticles in the JEOL-2010F transmission electron microscope. The bottom portion of this image displays the field of nanoparticles produced in the transmission microscope by electron beam induced "Coulomb explosion" of BiNi bimetallic particles.

"Our research effort is directed toward sythesis and characterization of functional
complex oxides and multimetallic nanomaterials. Relationships between composition,
structure, and physical properties are sought with the ultimate goal of producing new
technologically useful materials by design. Materials for catalytic applications and those
with strongly correlated electronic behavior are of particular interest."
