Researchers have pioneered a new technique called X-ray linear dichroic orientation tomography, which probes the orientation of a material's building blocks at the nanoscale in three-dimensions. First ...

However, the drastic drop in ionic conductivity at the interfaces between the countless crystal grains (grain boundaries) ...

Multicrystalline Fine Ceramics (also referred to as "advanced ceramics") possess a microstructure of crystal grain boundaries and microscopic pores, which diffuses light and impedes light ...

In this new technology, the average crystal grain size can be controlled in the nano scale ... The developed platinum has a high density of small-angle grain boundaries, large-angle grain boundaries, ...
