Modern materials scientists and engineers are driven by world-wide competition to develop new technology and manufactured devices. The trend has for some time been towards miniaturisation and one of the main challenges lies in effectively characterising nanostructures that are produced as a key step in research and development of advanced materials. The proposed electron microscope and detectors will provide a state-of-the-art analytical facility to support the cross-disciplinary materials science and nanotechnology research at the Australian National University. It will also provide an important training facility for students and early-career researchers and will be available to investigators from other Australian institutions.

现代材料科学家和工程师受到世界范围内开发新技术和制造设备的竞争的推动。一段时间以来，这一趋势一直是微型化的趋势，主要挑战之一在于有效地表征纳米结构，将其作为先进材料研究和开发的关键步骤。拟议的电子显微镜和探测器将提供最先进的分析设施，以支持澳大利亚国立大学的跨学科材料科学和纳米技术研究。它还将为学生和职业生涯早期研究人员提供重要的培训设施，并将向来自澳大利亚其他机构的研究人员提供。
