Acquisition of High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope

这款高分辨率的透射电子显微镜提供了0.18纳米的点分辨率，在侧面入口级配置，也容纳了一个大的立体角x射线探测器。它将被安置在威斯康星大学工程学院的新材料科学中心，并将在几个主要研究领域创造新的机会并加强活动，包括快速凝固的基础研究，地质材料的高分辨率成像，低温和高温超导材料的发展，砷化镓的金属化，负载金属催化剂，超细陶瓷颗粒和膜，结构玻璃陶瓷的结晶，以及聚变系统和等离子体源离子注入加工材料的辐射损伤。

This high-resolution transmission electron microscope offers 0.18 nanometer point resolution in a side-entry stage configuration and also accommodates a large solid angle x-ray detector. It will be housed in the new Materials Science Center of the College of Engineering at the University of Wisconsin, and will create new opportunities and enhance the activities in several major research areas including fundamental studies of rapid solidification, high-resolution imaging of geological materials, low-temperature and high-temperature superconducting materials development, metallizations on gallium-arsenide, supported metal catalysts, ultrafine ceramic particles and membranes, crystallization of structural glass ceramics, and radiation damage in materials for fusion systems and plasma-source ion implantation processing.
