Processes of growth of semi-insulating Cd(1-x)Zn(x)Te:Cl crystals (x = 0.0002 and 0.1) of n-type conductivity are investigated. From the grown crystals detectors for X-ray computer tomography with small value of photocurrent memory (afterglow) (0.1-0.3%) are obtained.

The equations for calculating diffraction profiles for bent crystals are revisited for both meridional and sagittal bending. Two approximated methods for computing diffraction profiles are treated: multilamellar and Penning-Polder. A common treatment
of crystal anisotropy is included in these models. The formulation presented is implemented into the XOP package, completing and updating the crystal module that simulates diffraction profiles for perfect, mosaic and now distorted crystals by elastic bending.
X-ray Computed Tomography (X-ray CT) is a well-known non-destructive imaging technique where contrast originates from the materials absorption coefficients. Novel battery characterization studies on increasingly challenging samples have been enabled
by the rapid development of both synchrotron and laboratory-scale imaging systems as well as innovative analysis techniques. Furthermore, the recent development of laboratory nano-scale CT (NanoCT) systems has pushed the limits of battery material imaging towards voxel sizes previously achievable only using synchrotron facilities. Such systems are now able to reach spatial resolutions down to 50 nm. Given the non-destructive nature of CT, in-situ and operando studies have emerged as powerful methods to quantify morphological parameters, such as tortuosity factor, porosity, surface area, and volume expansion during battery operation or cycling. Combined with powerful Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) analysis techniques, extracted 3D tomograms and battery-specific morphological parameters enable the development of predictive physics-based models that can provide valuable insights for battery engineering. These models can predict the impact of the electrode microstructure on cell performances or analyze the influence of material heterogeneities on electrochemical responses. In this work, we review the increasing role of X-ray CT experimentation in the battery field, discuss the incorporation of AI/ML in analysis, and provide a perspective on how the combination of multi-scale CT imaging techniques can expand the development of predictive multiscale battery behavioral models.
Information on the lattice parameter of single crystals with known crystallographic structure allows for estimations of sample quality and composition. In many cases it is suffcient to determine one lattice parameter or the lattice spacing along a ce
rtain, high-symmetry direction, e.g. in order to determine the composition in a substitution series by taking advantage of Vegards rule. Here we present a guide to accurate measurements of single crystals with dimensions ranging from 200 $mu$m up to several millimeter using a standard powder diffractometer in Bragg-Brentano geometry. The correction of the error introduced by the sample height and the optimization of the alignment are discussed in detail. In particular for single crystals with a plate-like habit, the described procedure allows for measurement of the lattice spacings normal to the plates with high accuracy on a timescale of minutes.
X-ray scattering is one of the primary tools to determine crystallographic configuration with atomic accuracy. However, the measurement of ultrafast structural dynamics in monolayer crystals remains a long-standing challenge due to a significant redu
ction of diffraction volume and complexity of data analysis, prohibiting the application of ultrafast x-ray scattering to study nonequilibrium structural properties at the two-dimensional limit. Here, we demonstrate femtosecond surface x-ray diffraction in combination with crystallographic model-refinement calculations to quantify the ultrafast structural dynamics of monolayer WSe$_2$ crystals supported on a substrate. We found the absorbed optical photon energy is preferably coupled to the in-plane lattice vibrations within 2 picoseconds while the out-of-plane lattice vibration amplitude remains unchanged during the first 10 picoseconds. The model-assisted fitting suggests an asymmetric intralayer spacing change upon excitation. The observed nonequilibrium anisotropic structural dynamics in two-dimensional materials agrees with first-principles nonadiabatic modeling in both real and momentum space, marking the distinct structural dynamics of monolayer crystals from their bulk counterparts. The demonstrated methods unlock the benefit of surface sensitive x-ray scattering to quantitatively measure ultrafast structural dynamics in atomically thin materials and across interfaces.
Focussed Ion Beam (FIB) milling is a mainstay of nano-scale machining. By manipulating a tightly focussed beam of energetic ions, often gallium (Ga+), FIB can sculpt nanostructures via localised sputtering. This ability to cut solid matter on the nan
o-scale has revolutionised sample preparation across the life-, earth- and materials sciences. For example FIB is central to microchip prototyping, 3D material analysis, targeted electron microscopy sample extraction and the nanotechnology behind size-dependent material properties. Despite its widespread usage, detailed understanding of the functional consequences of FIB-induced structural damage, intrinsic to the technique, remains elusive. Here, we present nano-scale measurements of three-dimensional, FIB-induced lattice strains, probed using Bragg Coherent X-ray Diffraction Imaging (BCDI). We observe that even low gallium ion doses, typical of FIB imaging, cause substantial lattice distortions. At higher doses, extended self-organised defect structures appear, giving rise to stresses far in excess of the bulk yield limit. Combined with detailed numerical calculations, these observations provide fundamental insight into the nature of the damage created and the structural instabilities that lead to a surprisingly inhomogeneous morphology.
