An international team of researchers, including Drexel Materials' Yury Gogotsi, PhD, observed that ions will forgo their typical alternating charge ordering when they are forced to jam into a small, sub-nanometer-sized, space. The discovery could lead to safer energy storage devices and better water filtration membranes.

Researchers from the Dynamic Characterization Group, led by Mitra Taheri, PhD, Hoeganaes associate professor, recently published their findings from a side-by-side test of a newly developed direct detection camera and a conventional indirect detection camera, both developed by Gatan. Their piece in the journal Nature Scientific Reports, suggests that applying a direct detection sensor to standard electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) will greatly enhance scientists ability to study a materials structure and chemistry at the nanometer level.
