Direct visualization of radiation-induced transformations at alkali halide–air interfaces

Halide salts exhibit complex radiation-induced reactions that are relevant in atmospheric chemistry, but detailed characterizations in high-level radiation fields are challenging to obtain. Here, the authors use a custom atomic force microscope to study alkali halide surface transformations in situ...
