Quantum Beam Materials Physics and Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that investigates the structure of materials at the atomic level using electron microscopes and synchrotron radiation.
AboutAbout the lab
Seeing materials at the atomic level with quantum beams.
The Quantum Beam Materials Physics and Engineering Lab conducts research and education in materials science based on the interaction between quantum beams and matter.
Through electron microscopy observation, diffraction, and analysis, and through spectroscopy experiments at synchrotron radiation facilities, the lab carries out basic research to understand the fine structure of functional nanostructured materials at the atomic level.
Quantum beams transfer energy to atoms and electrons in materials and introduce lattice defects.
The lab also studies irradiation-induced defects in nuclear reactor materials used under irradiation, including how atomic structures and microstructures develop.
Key terms
- Quantum beam
- A beam that transfers energy to atoms and electrons in a material and introduces lattice defects
- Lattice defect
- A region in a crystal where the arrangement of atoms is disordered
- Irradiation-induced defect
- A lattice defect formed inside a material by exposure to radiation
ResearchResearch themes
Using the interaction between quantum beams and matter as a clue, the lab aims to understand the fine structure of functional nanostructured materials at the atomic level. The materials it studies range widely, including catalyst materials, magnetic materials, and battery materials, and it also investigates irradiation-induced defects in nuclear reactor materials used under irradiation, focusing on how atomic structures and microstructures develop.
