DYK: Ga FIB patterning on Si and SrTiO₃ is governed primarily by total ion dose. New work out this week in M&M provides a metric set linking dwell, overlap and pass count to final line geometry—handy for nano-lithography tuning! https://t.co/RScxgMNP62

In case you missed it, LBNL researchers developed a new '4D` STEM detector with 576x576 pixels and 87,000 Hz speed! It captures data at 480 Gbit/s, enabling increasingly complex electron diffraction studies. We're gonna need a bigger hard drive.
