A new FCC/HCP interface found in classical Al-Ag system! As Richard Feynman called “there is plenty of space at the bottom”, and we are now empowered with fast advancing analysing techniques for direct observation and calculation.

The world is not yet prepared for #Coronvirus pandemic that overflows the medical resourse. This is the arguement behind the 'hard-core' measures in China. sciencemag.org/news/2020/03/c…

By introducing lattice defects, we found another new phase in the Al-Cu system, after the discovery of zebra phase in Al-Ag. These defects-induced phase transformations may well occur in engineering alloys. nature.com/articles/s4146…

I was an ordinary person who studied hard. There's no miracle people!

Looking for on-line courses? Check out the #TEM course by CIME EPFL WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: You will be able to understand papers where TEM has been used and have the necessary theoretical basis for taking a practical training on the TEM. coursera.org/learn/microsco…

For students doing electron microscopy but have limited access to experiments during the pandemic, we do have a virtual microscope on our desk ... with electrons in GPU. I prepared the electron microscopy simulation tutorial if you need a starter, see github.com/zezhong-zhang/….

Thanks, Zhigang Suo for the detailed notes to the affidavit, my heart goes with Prof. Gang Chen and his family at this difficult time, facing the uneven power of a nation against individuals. May we ask why McCarthy started again, what can we learn and what can we do?

In Gaudi's Casa Batlló, somehow the ceiling presents an excellent metaphor of treating an electron as both particle and wave. Simply amazing

We developed the Dirac-based EELS cross-sections for all elements, supporting both academic research and industry integration. Find more on Ultramicroscopy authors.elsevier.com/a/1kDfn15Dbnf-…
