Chemical Imaging Workshop
Coupling Atom Probe Tomography with High-resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy
On June 19, 2012, join us at the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory for a free full-day workshop dedicated to coupling atom probe tomography (APT) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The workshop is is limited to the first 100 registrants and will include an associated tour and tutorial session with laboratory demonstrations (tour and lab demonstrations are limited to 32 participants), focusing on multi-modal chemical imaging using a combination of focused ion beam (FIB), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), and APT.
Along with invited talks, the conference will feature a dedicated forum to discuss the possibility of combining APT with TEM into a single tool. Other aspects of developing new capabilities, such as cryogenic sample transfer, will be included in the discussion.
Invited Speakers
- Mike Miller - Oak Ridge National Laboratory
- Amanda Petford-Long - Argonne National Laboratory
- Brian Gorman - Colorado School of Mines
- Tom Kelly and Ty Prosa - Cameca Instruments, Inc.
