In Alex Robinson's research, he utilizes state-of-the-art techniques in both electron microscopy and signal processing to dramatically increase the speed at which data can be acquired. Furthermore, this can help with reducing (i) beam induced damage, (ii) time to acquire data and (iii) data storage requirements. Alex uses advanced data analysis and has developed expertise in simulating materials behaviour using computational tools. By combining experimental data with theoretical simulations, it is possible to improve the quality of our STEM imaging and reconstructions. Alex's current focus in on the application of subsampling to increase acquisition speed of 4-D STEM data. By doing this, Alex hopes to develop unique methods in the analysis of complex, beam sensitive samples such as battery cathode materials and biological samples.
