I really enjoyed discussing electron microscopy with @BlueSciPod, covering what I do in @cu_mat and some of the most fascinating current and future developments for EM. Thanks @seizagirre and @Ruby_Coates for the opportunity!
🎧 NEW EPISODE ALERT!! 🎧
This week, Dr Giorgio Divitini from @cu_mat tells us all about electron microscopy! From the history & science behind the technology... to the role that advanced EM techniques play in interdisciplinary research.

Amazing work from everyone in this project! Good insights on the use of guanidinium in perovskite solar cells, it was a pleasure to be involved in the electron microscopy for this work
🌪️ Thrilled to see our work on the front cover of @ACSEnergyLett! A simple molecular tweak, guanidinium substitution, enhances charge extraction in inverted perovskite solar cells. Huge thanks to @hatahini for turning the concept into stunning artwork! @ACSPublications
New paper out - this is a fascinating heterostructure with a metallic Bi nanoparticle attached to a nano-bell. Our contribution was an extensive TEM study to look at morphology, composition and local strain - thanks to Andrea Griesi for all the EM work!

It was a pleasure to contribute to the symposium!
Today BIST MMRES students are presenting their research projects at the BIST Symposium on Microscopy, Nanoscopy and Imaging Sciences.
Big thanks to @icfonians for hosting and to all the brilliant scientists who shared their work in the scientific sessions. 🚀👏

Another very challenging material to study with electron microscopy, doing high resolution imaging on these nanocrystals was a lot of effort!

Thanks to all who helped and came along to the @IITalk area at the Genoa science festival @FDellaScienza ! We had a small demo, set up by Andrea Griesi, on perception and resolution, to promote discussions about microscopy and nanomaterials
More coverage for this work - check it out for some very nice HRSTEM images of nanocrystals acquired with our @thermosciEMSpec Spectra by Yurii!

This collaboration featured a lot of fascinating electron microscopy to study relative orientations and crystallography of heterostructures with a shared interface. It was also a lot of fun to explore selective elemental replacement in the components of the heterostructure!

A good write-up of one key paperwork issue in moving to Italy (text in Italian). Note - while the article discusses the challenges for Italians returning from abroad, the same applies to non-Italian researchers who want to build a career here:

🚀 Excited to announce the latest publication on #Cathodoluminescence in #GaN materials! @cu_mat and @OxfordMaterials compare Ga and Xe ion milling, revealing Xe ions cause less damage, preserving luminescence properties better.
