Surprising discovery shows electron beam radiation can repair nanostructures

www.sciencedaily.com Surprising discovery shows electron beam radiation can repair nanostructures

In a surprising new study, researchers have found that the electron beam radiation that they previously thought degraded crystals can actually repair cracks in these nanostructures. The groundbreaking discovery provides a new pathway to create more perfect crystal nanostructures, a process that...

Surprising discovery shows electron beam radiation can repair nanostructures

Not sure how useful it is yet, but it sounds like with some AI and proper cameras you could use it to completely repair certain components. Theres something similar to this using electrochemical plating to repair microfractures throughout a component - only downside is that it takes like weeks to do it properly (I'll see if I can dig up the paper later)
