NEWS  &  EVENTS

  • ​​​​​​January 9th, 2019: Torben and Eva have contributed to a paper published in Applied Catalysis A, General on chemical poisoning of NOx storage catalysts. This was in collaboration with researchers from the Competence Centre for Catalysis at Chalmers and the Volvo Car Corporation. You can find the paper here.
  • November 7th, 2018: Jonatan, Lunjie, Ludvig and Eva, in collaboration with Thomas Kanne Nordqvist, Peter Krogstrup and Jesper Nygård of Niels Bohr Institute, have recently published a paper in Nano Energy. The article, which is about a characterization method for single nanowire solar cells, can be found here.​​
  • November 1st, 2018: We would like to welcome our new PhD student in the group: Pierre Carmona. He will be studying the dynamics of formation of cellulose films for coatings of drug delivery systems.  He will perform the main part of his work in RISE with Niklas as supervisor and will use the FIB SEM in Eva group to characterize the structure of his systems.
  • October 30th, 2018: Lunjie, Wolfgang and Eva, in collaboration with Christoph Gammer of Erich Schmid Institute of Materials Science, Burak Ozdol and Andrew Minor of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Thomas Nordvquist and Peter Krogstrup of Niels Bohr Institute, have recently published a research paper in Nano Letters. The article “Correlation between Electrical Transport and Nanoscale Strain in InAs/In0.6Ga0.4As Core–Shell Nanowires” can be found here.
  • October 26th, 2018: Andy and Eva have contributed to a paper published in Nano Letters on strong light-matter coupling in Au bipyramid - WSe2 hybrid systems. This was in collaboration with the Shegai Group in the Bionanophotonics Division of the Department of Physics here at Chalmers. You can find the paper here.
  • October 25th, 2018: The Eva Olsson Group is organizing an advanced TEM/STEM school from November 19-21, 2018, where you can learn about recent developments in advanced electron microscopy techniques from leading experts. You are welcome to join!! Please find additional information and registration details here.
  • ​October 25th, 2018: The SOFT Microscopy Centre is organising a network meeting at Chalmers on the 14th of November, 2018. The theme of the meeting is Imaging in 2D and 3D. Please find more information here.
  • ​October 24th, 2018: We are extremely happy to have David Smith and Martha McCartney from Arizona State University with us. They will be with our Division on Sabbatical until mid-December. Welcome!
  • ​August 22nd, 2018: Ludvig and Eva, in collaboration with Mikael Juhani Kuisma of Jyväskylä University, Alexandre Dmitriev of Gothenburg University and Joakim Löfgren, Kristof Lodewijks, Mattias Thuvander and Paul Erhart of Chalmers, have succeeded in the counterintuitive feat of melting gold at room temperature which has been published in Physical Review Materials. The article "Electric-field-controlled reversible order-disorder switching of a metal tip surface​" can be found here.
  • ​August 21st, 2018: Congratulations to Ludvig for winning first prize at a poster competition at the excellence initiative Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Marstrand​, Sweden! More information can be found here.
  • ​July 13th, 2018: Torben, Andy and Eva, in collaboration with Henrik Grönbeck and Mikkel Jørgensen from the Division of Chemical Physics at Chalmers, have published their exciting new research entitled "Influence of atomic site-specific strain on catalytic activity of supported nanoparticles" in Nature Communications today. You can find the paper here. Congratulations!
  • May, 2018: Congratulations to Erik Olsén for successfully passing his Masters examination! Erik's thesis was entitled "Quantitative electron microscopy of self-assembled nanoparticle structures - Investigation of the plasmonic hybridisation in gold-palladium heterodimers using angle resolved cathodoluminescence".
  • May, 2018: Congratulations to Gustav Persson for successfully passing his Masters examination! Gustav's thesis was entitled "Electron microscopy study of a novel battery material - Changes in structure and chemical composition during cycling". For this thesis work, Gustav used electron microscopy to study the changes in microstructure and the formation of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) for a novel battery material consisting of porous carbon nanofibers.
  • ​​April 11th & 17th, 2018: The new JEOL S/TEM instrument installation is moving along great! We are looking at Si [110]​​ dumbbells at 40 keV!
  • ​March 14th, 2018: The Eva Olsson group celebrated the beginning of the assembly of the new low-keV JEOL TEM/STEM with the JEOL team with a night filled with bowling.​​
