The surfaces of the measuring objects were automatically scanned point by point. Pulse-echo measurements were performed at each of these measuring points. The test specimens represent two typical testing tasks in construction industry: the detection of objects and the determination of dimensions to describe the geometry of components. By automating the measurement process, the different test scenarios are examined with a high repeatability, precision and measuring point density. Longitu- dinal and transversal waves were used and the geometrical aperture of the testing system was varied. The low-frequency probes operate in a range of up to approximately 150 kHz. In addition to the specification of the geometrical dimensions of the individual probes, the directivity pattern and the sound field characteristics are provided. The raw data are stored in a universally readable format. The length of each time signal (A-scan) is two milliseconds and the sampling rate is two mega-samples per second. The provided data can be used for comparative studies in signal analysis, imag- ing and interpretation as well as for evaluation pur- poses in different, practically relevant testing scenarios.

The investigated specimen is made of the isotropic homogeneous material polyamide and has a drill hole of constant diameter running parallel to the surface, which was scanned in a point grid using an automatic scanner system. At each measuring position, a pitch-catch measurement was performed using a sampling rate of 2 MHz. The probes used are arrays consisting of a spatially separated receiving and in-phase transmitting unit. The transmitting and receiving sides each consist of 12 point-shaped single probes. These dry-point contact (DPC) probes operate according to the piezoelectric principle at nominal frequencies of 55 kHz (shear waves) and 100 kHz (longitudinal waves), respectively, and do not require a coupling medium. The measurements are performed with longitudinal (100 kHz) and transverse (55 kHz) waves with different geometric orientations of the probe on the measurement surface. The data presented in the article provide a valid source for evaluating reconstruction algorithms for imaging in the low-frequency ultrasound range.

Such restrictions include the limited spatial resolution achieved through FBP due to Nyquist‘s sampling theorem, the inability of FBP to perform a quality reconstruction when projections are missing, and the excessive computing time needed for ART.

T1 - Quantitative structural assessment of heterogeneous catalysts by electron tomography N2 - We present transmission electron microscope (TEM) tomography investigations of ruthenium-based fuel cell catalyst materials as employed in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC). The digital three-dimensional representation of the samples not only enables detailed studies on number, size, and shape but also on the local orientation of the ruthenium particles to their support and their freely accessible surface area. The shape analysis shows the ruthenium particles deviate significantly from spherical symmetry which increases their surface to volume ratio. The morphological studies help to understand the structure formation mechanisms during the fabrication as well as the high effectiveness of these catalysts in the oxygen reduction reaction at the cathode side of fuel cells.

T1 - Three-dimensional imaging of magnetic domains N2 - Magnetic domains have been the subject of much scientific investigation since their theoretical existence was first postulated by P.-E. Weiss over a century ago. Up to now, the three-dimensional (3D) domain structure of bulk magnets has never been observed owing to the lack of appropriate experimental methods. Domain analysis in bulk matter thus remains one of the most challenging tasks in research on magnetic materials. All current domain observation methods are limited to studying surface domains or thin magnetic films. As the properties of magnetic materials are strongly affected by their domain structure, the development of a technique capable of investigating the shape, size and distribution of individual domains in three dimensions is of great importance. Here, we show that the novel technique of Talbot-Lau neutron tomography with inverted geometry enables direct imaging of the 3D network of magnetic domains within the bulk of FeSi crystals.

T1 - Charakterisierung von Katalysatormaterialien für Brennstoffzellen mittels Elektronentomografie N2 - Zur Optimierung moderner Katalysatoren für Brennstoffzellen werden diese elektronen-tomografisch charakterisiert. Die Elektronentomografie ermöglicht einzigartige Einblicke in die Nanometer-Strukturen der metallischen Katalysatorpartikel, die auf einem elektrisch leitenden, inerten Kohlenstoffträger abgeschieden werden. Die dreidimensional bildgebende Methode ermöglicht über qualitative Untersuchungen hinaus detaillierte quantitative Form- und Strukturanalysen der Katalysatormaterialien. So werden beispielsweise die Positionen der Katalysatorpartikel relativ zum Trägermaterial analysiert. Ihre Form und Einbettung in den Träger, welche die für die katalytische Reaktion maßgebliche "freie Oberfläche" definieren, werden bestimmt. Die Elektronentomografie ermöglicht somit quantitative Vergleiche zwischen verschiedenen Katalysatormaterialien und Herstellungsverfahren. Sie erweitert die Möglichkeiten der Korrelation gewünschter elektrochemischer Eigenschaften mit der Nanostruktur dieser Materialien und macht so weitere Optimierungen der Katalysatormaterialien möglich.

T1 - Rekonstruktion limitierter CT-Messdatensätze von Brennstoffzellen mit Directt N2 - Die Aufklärung spezifischer Fragestellungen zur Funktionalität von PEM(polymer electrolyte membrane)- und DMFC(Direct Methanol)-Brennstoffzellen bedarf der 3D-Abbildung der spezifischen Komponenten mit unterschiedlichen Strahlungsarten: des Wassergehalts in den Flow Fields mit Neutronen, der Katalysator-Alterung in der MEA (membrane electrode assembly) mit Synchrotronstrahlung und der freien (reaktiven) Katalysator-Oberfläche von Nano-Partikeln mit TEM-Elektronen-Tomografie. Diese Messungen im Bereich der mm- bis nm-Skala unterliegen dabei erheblichen Restriktionen: einer ortsabhängigen Verschmierung der Neutronenradiogramme, Manipulatorinstabilitäten der Synchrotronmessungen sowie einer Kombination von Limited-View-Datensätzen, wenigen Projektionswinkeln und teilweiser Nichtdurchstrahlbarkeit in der Elektronen-CT. Die Vorteile eines fortentwickelten Directt-Algorithmus für die Bewältigung dieser Randbedingungen gegenüber gefilterten Rückprojektionen werden aufgezeigt.

T1 - Rekonstruktion unvollständiger computertomografischer Modelldatensätze mit Directt-Algorithmus N2 - Modellrechnungen zur Rekonstruktion unvollständiger computertomographischer Datensätze werden zur Ermittlung der Vorteile des neuen Directt-Algorithmus gegenüber der konventionellen gefilterten Rückprojektion durchgeführt, insbesondere auch zur Vermeidung experimentell begründeter Unwägbarkeiten. Ein entsprechender Bedarf entsteht seitens erweiterter Forschungsaktivitäten und industrieller Bedürfnisse, wo die Rekonstruktion limitierter Messdatensätze von Artefakten dominiert wird. Die bekanntesten Einschränkungen betreffen das Limited-View- und Few-Angles-Problem sowie die ROI-Situation, die jeweils unabhängig voneinander untersucht werden, in der Anwendung jedoch zumeist undefiniert vermischt sind, wie etwa in der Elektronen-Tomografie. Die hochauflösende Rekonstruktion von Einzelpixeln wird durch die Wahl eines kleinen Modells von nur 1012 Pixeln visualisiert und ist ohne Filterung möglich. Rekonstruktionen von 90°-Sektoren oder 50 % -ROI-Querschnitten sind fast ohne Auflösungseinschränkungen realisierbar. Die bisher nicht bekannte Möglichkeit, auch außerhalb der ROI präzise zu rekonstruieren, wurde als "Extended ROI"-Methode erfolgreich erprobt.
