Grow: visualising nature at nanoscale

چکیده

Animating time and space: scientific virtual modelling, microscopy time-lapse and the fifth dimension. As a visual artist I am exploring methods of contemporary scientific research and digital technologies that create new ways of visualising virtual volumetric data of dynamic (or kinetic) microscopic systems. My current research project is an investigation of the aesthetic possibilities of computational extension of vision through the process of dynamic X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). With this science I am attempting to capture in 4D (3D + time) microscopy, the transformation of agricultural seeds as they germinate, from embryo to first leaf stage. I am visualising these dynamic data-sets in in a custom designed volume exploration and presentation tool Drishti.

An Ion Diffusion Method for Visualising a Solid-like Water Nanofilm

A nano-thick solid-like water film on solid surfaces plays an important role in various fields, including biology, materials science, atmospheric chemistry, catalysis and astrophysics. Visualising the water nanofilm has been a challenge due to its dynamic nature and nanoscale thickness. Here we report an ion diffusion method to address this problem using a membrane formed with a BSA-Na2CO3 (BSA...

Information Pyramids : A New Approach to Visualising Large Hierarchies

This paper presents work in progress on a new technique for visualising and manipulating large hierarchies. The Information Pyramids approach compactly visualises hierarchical structures in three dimensions using pyramid-like structures, which grow upwards as the hierarchy is descended. The technique is described in the context of our early experience with a prototype file system visualiser bas...

Stable storage of helium in nanoscale platelets at semicoherent interfaces.

He implanted into metals precipitates into nanoscale bubbles that may later grow into voids, degrading the properties of engineering alloys. Using multiscale modeling, we show that a different class of He precipitates may form at semicoherent interfaces: nanoscale platelets. These platelets grow by wetting high-energy interface regions, remain stable under irradiation, and reduce He-induced swe...

Visualising discrete structural transformations in germanium nanowires during ion beam irradiation and subsequent annealing.

In this article we detail the application of electron microscopy to visualise discrete structural transitions incurring in single crystalline Ge nanowires upon Ga-ion irradiation and subsequent thermal annealing. Sequences of images for nanowires of varying diameters subjected to an incremental increase of the Ga-ion dose were obtained. Intricate transformations dictated by a nanowire's geometr...

DNA brick crystals with prescribed depths.

The ability to assemble functional materials with precise spatial arrangements is important for applications ranging from protein crystallography to photovoltaics. Here, we describe a general framework for constructing two-dimensional crystals with prescribed depths and sophisticated three-dimensional features. The crystals are self-assembled from single-stranded DNA components called DNA brick...
