Amazing work from everyone in this project! Good insights on the use of guanidinium in perovskite solar cells, it was a pleasure to be involved in the electron microscopy for this work

🌪️ Thrilled to see our work on the front cover of @ACSEnergyLett! A simple molecular tweak, guanidinium substitution, enhances charge extraction in inverted perovskite solar cells. Huge thanks to @hatahini for turning the concept into stunning artwork! @ACSPublications

New paper out - this is a fascinating heterostructure with a metallic Bi nanoparticle attached to a nano-bell. Our contribution was an extensive TEM study to look at morphology, composition and local strain - thanks to Andrea Griesi for all the EM work!

It was a pleasure to contribute to the symposium!
Today BIST MMRES students are presenting their research projects at the BIST Symposium on Microscopy, Nanoscopy and Imaging Sciences.
Big thanks to @icfonians for hosting and to all the brilliant scientists who shared their work in the scientific sessions. 🚀👏

Another very challenging material to study with electron microscopy, doing high resolution imaging on these nanocrystals was a lot of effort!

This collaboration featured a lot of fascinating electron microscopy to study relative orientations and crystallography of heterostructures with a shared interface. It was also a lot of fun to explore selective elemental replacement in the components of the heterostructure!

A good write-up of one key paperwork issue in moving to Italy (text in Italian). Note - while the article discusses the challenges for Italians returning from abroad, the same applies to non-Italian researchers who want to build a career here:

🚀 Excited to announce the latest publication on #Cathodoluminescence in #GaN materials! @cu_mat and @OxfordMaterials compare Ga and Xe ion milling, revealing Xe ions cause less damage, preserving luminescence properties better.
