Description
Summary:Environmental transmission electron microscopy has recently emerged as topics of great interest as well as ultra-high resolution electron microscopy using aberration correctors. Current research in this area has been focusing on dynamic observation with atomic resolution under gaseous atmospheres and in liquids. Nagoya University has been developing a new 1-MV high voltage (scanning) transmission electron microscope, which can be used to observe nano-materials under conditions that include the presence of gases, liquids and illuminating lights, and it can be also used to perform mechanical operations to nm-sized areas as well as electron tomography and elemental analysis by electron energy loss spectroscopy.
