In the steel processing industry it is of the utmost importance to both detect and understand potential microstructural heterogeneities caused by the various processing steps. The heterogeneities are often observed at substantially larger length scal… Read more

We are proud to announce the release of GrainMapper3D version 2.2, which is even faster and more intuitive than it’s predecessor. Through the LabDCT™ module for the ZEISS Xradia 520/620 Versa X-ray Microscopes, GrainMapper3D version 2.2 gives access… Read more

Researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and Xnovo Technology ApS have developed a novel x-ray imaging technology for the efficient characterization of fiber orientations within fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) components. First results of ap… Read more

Olivine is the dominating mineral in the earth’s upper mantle – the first layer beneath the surface crust. It is also common in some extraterrestrial meteorites and holds promise for carbon dioxide sequestration through mineral reaction. Overall an i… Read more

In collaboration with the Xnovo team, a group of researchers headed by professor Nik Chawla from Arizona State University have put the – soon to be released – forward modeling feature of the new GrainMapper3D 2.1 to the test and reported the results… Read more

Have you ever wondered what actually goes on behind the scenes of GrainMapper3D? What kind of magic is used to turn spotty diffraction patterns into colourful grain maps? In a new Journal of Applied Crystallography publication we have detailed the fa… Read more

The prize for this year’s best Danscatt PhD thesis was awarded to Henrik Lyder Andersen at the Danscatt Annual meeting 2019 hosted by Aarhus University. The committee regarded his science on advanced functional materials, including magnetic nanoparti… Read more

Grain boundary wetting refers to the phenomenon that a liquid metal penetrates along the grain boundaries within polycrystalline solid metals. Replacement of the original grain boundary with the liquid layer generally causes intergranular brittle fra… Read more

We are happy to announce that Anders Filsøe Pedersen has joined the Xnovo team as our new Scientist. Anders comes from a position as Post Doc in the NEXMAP (Neutrons and X-rays for Materials Physics) section at DTU Physics. He brings along a broad kn… Read more
