This project aims to establish a transmission electron microscope facility to analyse materials structure at the atomic level. A small number of atoms in critical locations governs the properties of materials from solar cells and catalysts to aerospace alloys, bio-sensors and quantum computers. To understand and engineer matter at this atomic level, tools are needed to characterise these critical atoms. This open access, national facility will be able to characterise matter at the atomic-level. Expected outcomes include better understanding of the natural world and advanced materials to solve problems in energy, technology, health, environment, communications, advanced manufacturing, transport and security.

该项目旨在建立一个透射电子显微镜设施，以在原子水平上分析材料结构。关键位置的少量原子决定着从太阳能电池和催化剂到航空航天合金、生物传感器和量子计算机等材料的性质。为了在原子水平上理解和设计物质，需要工具来解释这些关键原子。这个开放的国家设施将能够在原子水平上测量物质。预期成果包括更好地了解自然世界和先进材料，以解决能源，技术，健康，环境，通信，先进制造，运输和安全等问题。
