van Dijk, Raymond (author), Kalisvaart, D. (author), Cnossen, J.P. (author), Smith, C.S. (author)Single-molecule localization microscopy requires sparse activation of emitters to circumvent the diffraction limit. In densely labeled or thick samples, overlap of emitter images is inevitable. Single-molecule localization of these samples results in a biased parameter estimate with a wrong model of the number of emitters. On the other hand,...journal article 2023

Fu, Y. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author)A set of numerical and analytical models is presented to predict the growth and contraction of grain-boundary creep cavities in binary self-healing alloys. In such alloys, the healing is realised by preferential precipitation of supersaturated solutes at the free surface of the cavity.
