Blog Post Image: Diamond in the rough

An image of the yttria-stabilized zirconia film (parallel rows near the top) on top of a sapphire substrate (spotted array near the bottom) created using a transmission electron microscope. Bright spots indicate rows or columns of atoms and demonstrate that the distance between the rows of yttria-stabilized zirconia atoms increase in such thin films. Photo by Kathy F. Atkinson
