ELECTRON MICROSCOPY RESEARCH UNIT


The Electron Microscopy Division focuses on the use of electron microscopy techniques for nanoscience and nanotechnology research and applications. Recent advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology, with an ever decreasing size of materials and structures, brings the need for advanced characterisation with high spatial resolution to obtain a deep understanding of the structure-property-function relationships. The main aim of the Division is to provide scientific-technical support to the CIN2 research lines and to neighboring research centers, as well as developing and implementing novel related techniques. The laboratory has active collaborations with other research institutions and is becoming increasingly involved in European networks. Moreover, it has been selected by FEI as a Centre of Reference for development of joint experiments and workshops related with electron microscopy.
