Partial crystallization in Pd-BMG systems: From understanding structure towards influencing functionality through temperature-time series

Roland Logé

Small quantities of crystalline domains created in an amorphous matrix are seen as an active driver for enhanced properties in bulk metallic glasses (BMGs). We investigated partial crystallization and phase transformations through a series of isotherms at ...

Characterization of flat-fielding systems for quantitative microscopy

Suliana Manley, Dora Mahecic, Khalid Ashraf Mohie Ibrahim

Optical flat-fielding systems, such as field-mapping or integration-based beam shapers, are used to transform nonuniform illumination into uniform illumination. Thus, flat-fielding paves the way for imaging that is independent of position within a field of ...
