Abstract Scope |
Numerous challenges in materials science are limited by our characterization techniques and abilities to resolve them. In particular, many dynamics in metallurgy are limited by the high reflectivity of metals – which has historically limited microscopy techniques to surface or destructive measurements. Recent innovations in X-ray science have begun to transform how optical systems are designed, enabling the first ultrafast transmission based microscopes and nonlinear spectroscopies to work in the X-ray regime. In this talk, I will discuss how my career in optical imaging design and X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) science have enabled my group to advance critical challenges in metallurgy. I will discuss how our novel imaging techniques have allowed us to find important insights in metal additive manufacturing and in studying deformations in metals and other materials. |
