Abstract

An important goal of condensed matter research is to understand how microscopic or atomic level structural and electronic characteristics of a solid determine observable properties like superconductivity and magnetism. This goal is motivated by the recognition that such an understanding will enable scientists ultimately to design rationally bulk solids and nanostructures having predictable properties. Instrumental methodologies that provide a real-space picture of the connectivity of atoms in a solid and/or the local electronic structure are perhaps most appealing since they can probe materials directly in the space (real vs. reciprocal) that we often think, and can directly characterize defects and disorder that play significant roles in determining the properties of solids. Furthermore, real-space probes are required to assess the intrinsic structural and electronic properties of very small material structures that are a focus of the burgeoning area of nanotechnology.
