Thermomechanical processing such as annealing is one of the main methods to tailor the mechanical properties of materials, however, much is unknown about the reorganization of dislocation structures deep inside macroscopic crystals that…

Bearing fault diagnosis has been a challenge in the monitoring activities of rotating machinery, and it's receiving more and more attention. The conventional fault diagnosis methods usually extract features from the waveforms or spectrums…

We propose a new approach for reconstructing the 3D spatial distribution of small dislocation loops (DLs) from 2D TEM micrographs. This method is demonstrated for small DLs in tungsten, formed by low-dose ion-implantation, that appear as…

Crystal defects play a large role in how materials respond to their surroundings, yet there are many uncertainties in how extended defects form, move, and interact deep beneath a material's surface. A newly developed imaging diagnostic,…

Coherent x-ray diffractive imaging is extended to high resolution strain analysis in crystalline nanostructured devices. The application potential is demonstrated by determining the strain distribution in (Ga,Mn)As/GaAs nanowires. By…

Emerging gallium nitride (GaN) vertical power devices require high-quality GaN crystals with reduced crystal defects, especially threading dislocations (TDs), to harness the high critical electric field and electron mobility of the…

We propose a deep learning algorithm for the inpainting of Bragg Coherent Diffraction Imaging (BCDI) patterns affected by detector gaps. These regions of missing intensity can compromise the accuracy of reconstruction algorithms, inducing…

Magnetic Field Imaging (MFI) is the newest Fault Isolation/Failure analysis technique to non-destructively and non-invasively localize defects such as electrical shorts and opens in both the die and package levels of Flip-Chips. This is…

Curvilinear structures frequently appear in microscopy imaging as the object of interest. Crystallographic defects, i.e., dislocations, are one of the curvilinear structures that have been repeatedly investigated under transmission electron…

Discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) is a widely employed computational method to study plasticity at the mesoscale that connects the motion of dislocation lines to the macroscopic response of crystalline materials. However, the…

The image subtraction method is a powerful tool to analyze the light variations in crowded fields. This method is able to achieve a nearly optimal differential photometry, even in very dense regions. However, image subtraction is not…

Many modern applications use computer vision to detect and count objects in massive image collections. However, when the detection task is very difficult or in the presence of domain shifts, the counts may be inaccurate even with…

We present proof-of-concept imaging measurements of a polycrystalline material that integrate the elements of conventional high-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy with coherent diffraction imaging techniques, and that can enable in-situ…

Functional properties of transition-metal oxides strongly depend on crystallographic defects. In transition-metal-oxide electrocatalysts such as SrIrO3 (SIO), crystallographic lattice deviations can affect ionic diffusion and adsorbate…

Resolving how defects emerge and interact within the hierarchical structure of polycrystalline materials remains a core challenge in materials science. Grain-mapping methods such as three-dimensional X-ray diffraction (3DXRD) and…

Hetero-epitaxial crystalline films underlie many electronic and optical technologies but are prone to forming defects at their hetero-interfaces. Atomic-scale defects such as threading dislocations that propagate into a film impede the flow…
