A team of researchers from Leoben, Austria are using Raman spectroscopy to identify compositional defects in the lattice of ceramic perovskites, giving valuable insight into how to tune and improve the quality of ferroelectric ceramic materials used for a range of applications including in sensors, telecommunications, and energy storage.

Imaging your sample is a powerful way to better understand how the properties of materials alter with changing environmental conditions. Linkam has always understood this and offers a range of optional imaging modules to meet various experimental requirements.

Researchers at the University of Bath have been investigating the tensile properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes using Linkam’s new MFS mechanical testing stage.

In the current global health crisis, many biological research laboratories around the world are turning their attention to investigating the COVID-19 virus. Understanding these virus proteins from observations of their 3D structure can help the design and development of a vaccine.
