Electron Beam Nanophysics Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores nanoscale material properties with electron beam spectroscopy.

AboutAbout the lab
Capturing local material properties with electron beam spectroscopy.
Building on electron beam spectroscopy, this lab develops methods to analyze the electronic structure of local regions in materials and carries out fundamental applications of them to condensed matter physics.
It advances electron beam spectroscopy techniques based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and works to elucidate material properties at the nanoscale, such as electronic states, chemical bonding, optical properties, and lattice vibrations.
Centering on momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy (qEELS) and angle-resolved soft X-ray emission spectroscopy (AR-SXES), it aims at direct observation of local properties that are difficult to capture with conventional methods.
The lab belongs to the Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials, and its website presents it under the name “Electron Diffraction and Spectroscopy Research Division.”
Key terms
- Transmission electron microscope
- A microscope that passes an electron beam through a thin sample to observe its interior at the nanoscale. Abbreviated TEM.
- Momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy
- A method of examining the state of electrons in a material from the energy and momentum that transmitted electrons lose. Abbreviated qEELS.
- Angle-resolved soft X-ray emission spectroscopy
- A method of examining the state of electrons by measuring the soft X-rays emitted from a material separately for each emission angle. Abbreviated AR-SXES.
