Obvious Reason

In the 1940's and 1950's electron microscopy conferences were attended with everybody interested in learning about the latest technical developments for one very obvious reason. There was the electron microscope with its outstanding performance but nobody could make very much use of it because we were lacking proper techniques to prepare biological specimens. The development of the thin sectioning technique with its perfectioning in 1952 changed the situation and systematic analysis of the structure of cells could now be pursued. Since then electron microscopists have in general become satisfied with the level of resolution at which cellular structures can be analyzed when applying this technique. There has been little interest in trying to push the limit of resolution closer to that determined by the resolving power of the electron microscope.

Very High

The analysis of stacking fault tetrahedra (SFT) in fatigued metals (1,2) is somewhat complicated, due partly to their relatively low density, but principally to the presence of a very high density of dislocations which hides them. In order to overcome this second difficulty, we have used in this work an austenitic stainless steel that deforms in a planar mode and, as expected, examination of the substructure revealed planar arrays of dislocation dipoles rather than the cellular structures which appear both in single and polycrystals of cyclically deformed copper and silver. This more uniform distribution of dislocations allows a better identification of the SFT.The samples were fatigue deformed at the constant total strain amplitude Δε = 0.025 for 5 cycles at three temperatures: 85, 293 and 773 K. One of the samples was tensile strained with a total deformation of 3.5%.

<p>Herein, we develop a non-selective charge compensation strategy to prepare multi-single-atom doped carbon (MSAC) in which a sodium p-toluenesulfonate (PTS-Na) doped polypyrrole (S-PPy) polymer is designed to anchor discretionary mixtures of multiple metal cations, including iron (Fe<sup>3+</sup>), cobalt (Co<sup>3+</sup>), ruthenium (Ru<sup>3+</sup>), palladium (Pd<sup>2+</sup>), indium (In<sup>3+</sup>), iridium (Ir<sup>2+</sup>), and platinum (Pt<sup>2+</sup>) . As illustrated in Figure 1, the carbon surface can be tuned with different level of compositional complexities, including unary Pt<sub>1</sub>@NC, binary (MSAC-2, (PtFe)<sub>1</sub>@NC), ternary (MSAC-3, (PtFeIr)<sub>1</sub>@NC), quaternary (MSAC-4, (PtFeIrRu)<sub>1</sub>@NC), quinary (MSAC-5, (PtFeIrRuCo)<sub>1</sub>@NC), senary (MSAC-6, (PtFeIrRuCoPd)<sub>1</sub>@NC), and septenary (MSAC-7, (PtFeIrRuCoPdIn)<sub>1</sub>@NC) samples. The structural evolution of carbon surface dictates the activities of both ORR and HER. The senary MSAC-6 achieves the ORR mass activity of 18.1 A·mg<sub>metal</sub><sup>-1</sup> at 0.9 V (Vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)) over 30K cycles, which is 164 times higher than that of commercial Pt/C. The quaternary MSAC-4 presented a comparable HER catalytic capability with that of Pt/C. These results indicate that the highly complexed carbon surface can enhance its ability over general electrochemical catalytic reactions. The mechanisms regarding of the ORR and HER activities of the alternated carbon surface are also theoretically and experimentally investigated in this work, showing that the synergistic effects amongst the co-doped atoms can activate or inactivate certain single-atom sites.</p>
