We\u2019re now ready to bring it out of stealth.<\/p>\n<p>The motivation was a clear gap. Techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction computed tomography have become exceptionally powerful for studying complex materials and devices, yet robust, user-friendly software environments for analysing chemically rich, spatially resolved diffraction data remain limited.<\/p>\n<p>BeamStop provides an integrated, end-to-end analysis environment for spatially resolved diffraction datasets, bringing together interactive data exploration, mask creation, dimensionality reduction, peak fitting, and spatially resolved structural analysis using the Rietveld method. The platform also incorporates GPU-accelerated Rietveld refinement and AI-based tools such as PQ-Net to enable ultra-fast analysis of large diffraction datasets.<\/p>\n<p>The aim is to establish BeamStop as the go-to workflow platform for chemical imaging data analysis offering, for the first time, a complete and user-friendly environment that unifies these capabilities within a single piece of software.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in learning more or in purchasing BeamStop, please get in touch at <a href=\"mailto:software@finden.co.uk\"><b>software@finden.co.uk<\/b><\/a><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Scientific Computing team:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>Hongyang Dong, Evangelos Papoutsellis, Antonis Vamvakeros and\u00a0Simon Jacques.

Nano-resolution proved essential to connect local structure with functionality, highlighting the value of advanced characterisation for real-world materials.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full article at <a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/cmtd.202500074\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/cmtd.202500074<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Other collaborators include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lunduniversity.lu.se\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lund University<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esrf.fr\/home.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ESRF<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucl.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University Collage London<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rc-harwell.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Research Complex at Harwell<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><footer class=\"entry-footer\"><\/footer><div class='post_delimiter'><\/div><\/div><div class=\"post_author_timeline\"><\/div><span class='hidden'>\n\t\t\t\t<span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='url'>http:\/\/www.finden.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Findenlogo_web_340px-300x138.png<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='height'>0<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='width'>0<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"publisher\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='name'>Corinne Anyika<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='logo' itemscope itemtype='https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop='url'>http:\/\/www.finden.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Findenlogo_web_340px-300x138.png<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span><span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" ><span itemprop='name'>Corinne Anyika<\/span><\/span><span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"datePublished\" datetime=\"2025-10-15T13:23:24+00:00\" >2025-10-15 13:23:24<\/span><span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"dateModified\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/dateModified\" >2025-10-15 13:31:46<\/span><span class='av-structured-data'  itemprop=\"mainEntityOfPage\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/mainEntityOfPage\" ><span itemprop='name'>Rationalizing Deactivation Behavior in Pyrochlore-Type CeO2-ZrO2 Oxygen Storage Catalysts<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/article><article class=\"post-entry post-entry-type-standard post-entry-4166 post-loop-6 post-parity-even single-small  post-4166 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-news tag-battery tag-battery-imaging-library tag-data tag-ebsd tag-edx tag-imaging tag-micro-ct tag-nano-ct tag-neutron-ct tag-s3dxrd tag-sem tag-x-ray-ct tag-xrd-ct\"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" ><div class=\"blog-meta\"><a href='https:\/\/www.finden.co.uk\/zh\/news\/new-battery-imaging-library-bil\/' class='small-preview'  title=\"New Battery Imaging Library (BIL)\"   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><span class='iconfont avia-svg-icon avia-font-svg_entypo-fontello' data-av_svg_icon='pencil' data-av_iconset='svg_entypo-fontello' ><svg version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"25\" height=\"32\" viewbox=\"0 0 25 32\" preserveaspectratio=\"xMidYMid meet\" role=\"graphics-symbol\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n<path d=\"M22.976 5.44q1.024 1.024 1.504 2.048t0.48 1.536v0.512l-8.064 8.064-9.28 9.216-7.616 1.664 1.6-7.68 9.28-9.216 8.064-8.064q1.728-0.384 4.032 1.92zM7.168 25.92l0.768-0.768q-0.064-1.408-1.664-3.008-0.704-0.704-1.44-1.12t-1.12-0.416l-0.448-0.064-0.704 0.768-0.576 2.56q0.896 0.512 1.472 1.088 0.768 0.768 1.152 1.536z\"><\/path>\n<\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix standard-content'><header class=\"entry-content-header\" aria-label=\"Post: New Battery Imaging Library (BIL)\"><h2 class='post-title entry-title'  itemprop=\"headline\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finden.co.uk\/zh\/news\/new-battery-imaging-library-bil\/\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permanent Link: New Battery Imaging Library (BIL)\">New Battery Imaging Library (BIL)<span class=\"post-format-icon minor-meta\"><\/span><\/a><\/h2><span class=\"post-meta-infos\"><\/span><\/header><div class=\"entry-content\"  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4172\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finden.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BILimage1.jpeg\" alt=\"image from Battery Imaging Library\" width=\"800\" height=\"363\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are pleased to announce the launch of the <strong>Battery Imaging Library (BIL)<\/strong> &#8211;

It provides a collection of Python function-based tools designed for accessibility and education as well as a graphical user interface (GUI). Prioritising transparency and ease of learning, nDTomo adopts a function-centric design that facilitates straightforward understanding and extension of core workflows, from phantom generation and pencil-beam tomography simulation to sinogram correction, tomographic reconstruction and peak fitting. While many scientific toolkits embrace object-oriented design for modularity and scalability, nDTomo instead emphasises pedagogical clarity, making it especially suitable for students and researchers entering the chemical imaging and tomography field. The suite also includes modern deep learning tools, such as a self-supervised neural network for peak analysis (PeakFitCNN) and a GPU-based direct least squares reconstruction (DLSR) approach for simultaneous tomographic reconstruction and parameter estimation. Rather than aiming to replace established tomography frameworks, nDTomo serves as an open, function-oriented environment for training, prototyping, and research in chemical imaging and tomography.<\/p>\n<p>Read the paper at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.rsc.org\/en\/Content\/ArticleLanding\/2025\/DD\/D5DD00252D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">
