Integrated Nano-Analytical Chemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses electron microscopes to see the forms of atoms and electrons.

AboutAbout the lab
Seeing is believing: observing atoms directly
The Integrated Nano-Analytical Chemistry Lab uses a variety of electron microscopes to observe materials directly at the molecular and atomic scale, and analyzes their structures and physical properties.
Defects and interface structures that are averaged out and hidden in X-ray diffraction can be seen as real-space images with a microscope.
By combining energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), the lab also investigates composition and electronic states at the nanoscale.
Key terms
- Transmission electron microscope (TEM)
- A microscope that passes electrons through a thin sample to observe it down to the atomic scale
- EELS (electron energy-loss spectroscopy)
- A method that measures the energy lost by electrons passing through a sample to investigate its elements and electronic states
- X-ray diffraction
- A method that shines X-rays on a crystal to investigate the arrangement of its atoms
ResearchResearch themes
The lab develops analytical methods with high spatial resolution using transmission electron microscopy, and uses them to evaluate materials.
*Illustrative imageHigh-Resolution Analysis by Electron Microscopy
By combining electron microscopy with spectroscopic techniques, the lab aims to establish new analytical methods for microscopy that reveal not only structure but also composition and electronic states at the nanoscale, and to use them to evaluate materials.
*Illustrative imageAtomic-Resolution Mapping of Electronic States
Using the fine structure of core-electron excitation spectra, the lab works on achieving atomic-resolution mapping beyond conventional limits, and investigates how the thermal vibration of atoms affects the spectrum of titanium.
