CENEM and GRK members contributed by investigating the morphology and the agglomeration of SPIONs and nano plastic particles by employing scale-briding electron and X-ray microscopy and tomography techniques. The corresponding paper is now published in Materials Today, further details and background...

A new Tenure Track Professorhip Computational Materials Microscopy (W2 / Associate Professor) is available at CENEM that is embedded at the Institute of Micro- and Nanostructure Research. The research focus of this professorship should be on computational approaches for designing/guiding experiment...

Wie lassen sich ultradünne Beschichtungen von einigen Nanometern gezielt herstellen? Darüber hat sich der Erlanger Bundestagsabgeordnete Stefan Müller bei einem Besuch am Interdisziplinären Zentrum für Nanostrukturierte Filme (IZNF) der FAU informiert. Zu Beginn des Besuchs in dem neu errichteten...

In a recent publication, researchers of CENEMN's associated GRK1896 present in situ investigations of reactions at a solid-liquid-gas interface using liquid cell transmission electron microscopy. The work published open access in Advanced Materials Interfaces (Art. No. 1901027: https://www.onlinelib...

The bi-annual event "Long Night of Science" in Nuremberg, Fuerth and Erlangen was again very success for IMN/CENEM. At the Electron Microscopy facilities alone we welcomed more several hundred people throughout the night. Visitors had the chance to see the Titan Themis3 and learn about research at t...

Hans-Georg Steinrück, an invited speaker at the DPG Symposium “Correlative and in situ Microscopy in Materials Research” coorganized by GRK 1896 receives 2019 Spicer Award for energy storage research at SLAC’s X-ray synchrotron. The award emphasizes how important in situ methods are to tackle one...

The CENEM research unit GRK 1896 is very proud, that our member Peter Schweizer has received first place out of 63 in the teaching evaluation of the technical faculty (category VP5) for the lecture “Rasterelektronenmikroskopie in der Materialforschung”. The lecture pretty much deals with the central...

Liquid phase electron microscopy is a powerful technique for investigating processes directly on site with high spatial and temporal resolution. This particular in situ technique was shown to be suitable for application in materials sciences, energy storage and biology. In a recent publication, rese...

5th CENEM Summer School for X-ray Scattering 2019 From the 29th of July to 1st of August 2019the Institute for Crystallography and Structural Physics (ICSP) will host the 5th CENEM Summer School for X-ray Scattering. The school will provide a perfect opportunity to get a detailed insight in...

The DPG symposium, coorganized by CENEM, about "Correlative and in situ Microscopy in Materials Research" was a huge success. All talks were of high quality and often accompanied by lively discussions. The attendance toped around 200 people, never falling below 50. Although the international and ...
