Multiscale characterizations of various materials system

Facilities & testing
University

Our advanced TEM capabilities provide comprehensive characterization of materials from the micrometer to atomic scale. We offer high-resolution imaging, diffraction, elemental and chemical analysis, 3D tomography, and in situ/operando microscopy to investigate microstructure, composition, defects, phase transformations, degradation mechanisms, and structure-property relationships. Our expertise supports research and development in engineering alloys, energy storage materials, catalysts, semiconductors, nanomaterials, and other functional materials.
