چکیده

We demonstrate real-time resolved white beam Laue diffraction during compression of micron-sized focused ion beam milled single crystals Au pillars, revealing the dynamical correlation between microstructure and plasticity. The evolution of the Laue patterns of the Au pillars demonstrates the occurrence of crystal rotation and strengthening is explained by plasticity starting on a slip system that is geometrically not predicted but selected because of the character of the preexisting strain gradient.

Time-resolved methods in biophysics. 6. Time-resolved Laue crystallography as a tool to investigate photo-activated protein dynamics.

When polychromatic X-rays are shined onto crystalline material, they generate a Laue diffraction pattern. At third generation synchrotron radiation sources, a single X-ray pulse of approximately 100 ps duration is enough to produce interpretable Laue data from biomolecular crystals. Thus, by initiating biological turnover in a crystalline protein, structural changes along the reaction pathway m...

Dynamic crystal rotation resolved by high-speed synchrotron X-ray Laue diffraction

Dynamic compression experiments are performed on single-crystal Si under split Hopkinson pressure bar loading, together with simultaneous high-speed (250-350 ns resolution) synchrotron X-ray Laue diffraction and phase-contrast imaging. A methodology is presented which determines crystal rotation parameters, i.e. instantaneous rotation axes and angles, from two unindexed Laue diffraction spots. ...

Simulations of time-resolved x-ray diffraction in Laue geometry

A method for computer simulation of time-resolved x-ray diffraction (TRXD) in asymmetric Laue (transmission) geometry with an arbitrary propagating strain perpendicular to the crystal surface is presented. We present two case studies for possible strain generation by short-pulse laser irradiation: (i) a thermoelastic-like analytical model; (ii) a numerical model including the effects of electro...

Protein crystallography 1. The frontiers of time-resolved macromolecular crystallography: movies and chirped X-ray pulses

Three important frontiers of ultrafast time-resolved macromolecular crystallography are presented: extension of this technique to other biological systems; further developments in the elucidation of mechanism through the analysis of time-dependent movies to extract the underlying, time-independent, intermediate structures; and enhanced time resolution. The last is intimately linked with the nat...

X-ray micro Laue diffraction tomography analysis of a solid oxide fuel cell1

The relevance of micro Laue diffraction tomography (µ-LT) to investigate heterogeneous polycrystalline materials has been studied. For this purpose, a multiphase solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) electrode composite made of yttria-stabilized zirconia and nickel oxide phases, with grains of about a few micrometres in size, has been analyzed. In order to calibrate the Laue data and to test the techniq...
