Development of a Universal Super Transmission Electron Microscope

该项目旨在设计一种通用的超高分辨率电子显微镜，能够在纳米到皮米尺度上快速拍摄动态过程的快照。该项目将开创以原子分辨率对任何材料进行成像的方法，并在使用最先进的原位样品保持器通过光学操作测量其化学、机械、物理、电和热性质的同时跟踪其瞬时时间分辨行为。新设施将为澳大利亚材料科学和工程研究界提供独特的先进能力，以直接观察、研究和表征许多复杂的过程，以阐明各种材料的结构-性能关系。

This project aims to design a universal super-high resolution transmission electron microscope that will enable fast snapshots of dynamic processes at the nanometre to picometre scale. This project will pioneer methods to image any material at atomic resolution, and to trace its transient temporal-resolved behaviour at the same time as measuring its chemical, mechanical, physical, electrical and thermal properties with optical manipulation using state-of-the-art in situ sample holders. The new facility will provide unique advanced capability for the Australian materials science and engineering research community to directly observe, study and characterise many complex processes that elucidate the structure-property relationship for a wide range of materials.
