Defect in BaSnO3. (IMAGE) University of Minnesota Caption Using advanced analytical scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) at a magnification of 10 million times, University of Minnesota researchers were able to isolate and image the structure and composition of the metallic line defect in a perovskite crystal BaSnO3. This image shows the atomic arrangement of both the BaSnO3 crystal (on the left) and the metallic line defect. Credit Mkhoyan Group, University of Minnesota Usage Restrictions With credit.
