Electron Beam Pulser Team Members at Brookhaven Lab (IMAGE)

Senior physicist and group leader Yimei Zhu (sitting front) of Brookhaven Lab's Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science Department and scientists and engineers at Euclid TechLabs, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and JEOL USA received a 2019 R&D 100 Award for an electron beam pulser they developed. The pulser enables conventional transmission electron microscopes to capture ultrafast material processes--such as atomic vibration and charge transfer--without the need for complex and expensive pulsed lasers. Standing behind Zhu is Brookhaven research associate Xuewen Fu, who has been demonstrating the capabilities of the pulser in probing ultrafast processes. In the far back is Euclid engineer Hyeokmin Choe (left) and Stony Brook University graduate student Chase Rendall, who are working on the device's applications to biological molecules and quantum materials, respectively.
