Acquisition of three-dimensional (3D) spectral data is nowadays common using many different microanalytical techniques. In order to proceed to the 3D reconstruction, data processing is necessary not only to deal with noisy acquisitions but also to segment ...
Tissint is a heavily shocked olivine-phyric shergottite. We investigated and documented several phase transformations and dissociation phenomena of olivine adjacent to and in many shock-induced melt-pockets of Tissint. Olivine grains entrained in the melt- ...
Carbon nanotubes with unique physical and mechanical properties have shown great potential for biological applications, including tissue engineering and mimicking the structure and properties of human bones. In the present work, sol-gel synthesized nanocom ...
Chemical weathering of Mg, Ca-silicates and alumino-silicates contributes significantly to the drawdown of atmospheric CO2 over long time scales. The present work focuses on how this mode of weathering may change in the presence of free-living bacteria in ...
For biologists studying the morphology of cells, Electron Microscopy (EM) is the method of choice with its {\it nm} resolution, across increasingly larger volumes. However, the time necessary to acquire such image series is long and often limits the amount ...
We study in this thesis the structural origin of defect insensitive light emission in indium containing group-III nitride ternary alloys grown on sapphire, which are the active materials for the commercially available high brightness blue diodes. These str ...
Focused-ion-beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) has become an essential tool for studying neural tissue at resolutions below 10 nm x 10 nm x 10 nm, producing data sets optimized for automatic connectome tracing. We present a technical advance, ultr ...
This thesis is focused on a combined microscopy technique: energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) is extended to a three dimensional (3D) microanalysis using a so-called "dual-beam microscope": a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with a focused ion ...
Understanding the influence of bubble foams on magma permeability and strength is critical to investigations of volcanic eruption mechanisms. Increasing foam porosity decreases strength, enhancing the probability of an eruption. However, higher porosities ...
Nanocomposite SnO2/multiwall-carbon-nanotubes were prepared by the sol-gel method. The morphology of prepared nanocomposite powder was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Energy-dispersive X-ray and X-ray diffraction analyses were carried out, th ...
