SUMMARY:Probing the Nanoscale with a Combination of Theory and Microscopy
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Socrates Pantelides\, Vanderbilt University\nHosted b
	y: David Campbell\, Theodore Moustakas\nPoster: http://physics.bu.edu/poste
	rs/2013_Spring/08_Pantelides.pdf\n\nPart of the Physics Department Colloqui
	a Series.\n\nAbstract:\nCalculations based on density functional theory usi
	ng high-performance computers have made enormous strides in describing the 
	atomic-scale properties of complex materials. In parallel\, aberration-corr
	ected scanning transmission electron microscopy has reached extraordinary l
	evels of spatial and energy resolution\, in both imaging and electron-energ
	y-loss spectroscopy. The combination of theory and microscopy provides an u
	nparalleled probe to unravel the atomic-scale processes that control vital 
	properties for electronic\, optoelectronic\, magnetic\, and energy-related 
	applications. You are invited to a journey through the wide world of comple
	x materials structures – semiconductors\, superconductors\, complex oxide
	s\, graphene\, ultrasmall nanoparticles – for a first-hand experience of 
	the nanoscale. \nResearch supported by DOE Basic Energy Sciences; primary c
	ollaborator: Steve Pennycook (ORNL).
