We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
We are looking forward to sharing our calendar 2023 with you online. Every month a fascinating microscopy image will be revealed reflecting the research of IMN and CENEM.
The cover picture shows an electron diffraction image of TiS2, a layere...
Following the successful past two Sino-European Early Career Researchers Virtual Workshop on Emerging Techniques and Applications in Electron Microscopy (SEEM) that attracted 300+ registrations from 20+ countries and 100+ organisations in 2020 and 2021, respectively, we are pleased to announce that ...
Our nanowire experts Dr. Lilian Vogl, Dr. Peter Schweizer (now both at EMPA, Thun Switzerland), and Peter Denninger from the Institute of Micro- and Nanostructure Research headed by Prof. Spiecker recently published their work about gold nanowires provided by Gunther Richter from the Max Planck Inst...
A special scientific event, the “ZEISS On Your Campus Truck Tour 2022”, will make a stop in Erlangen at IZNF on 03.-04. of November 2022.
Zeiss will set up a showroom next to IZNF building and Zeiss experts offer individual live demonstrations on-site or remote sessions for various microscopic ...
On the 2022 Gordon Research Conference on Liquid Phase Electron Microscopy (LPEM) in Ventura, California (USA), IMN doctoral candidate Birk Fritsch was honored with a Poster Award. Birk presented a tool for Automated Radiation Chemistry simuluations (AuRaCh) that simplifies the assessment of irradia...
During the Materials Science and Engineering Congress (MSE 2022) in Darmstadt from 27 to 29, September, Irene Kraus won the best poster award for her master project presented with the title "Investigation of the 3D reciprocal space using electron diffraction tomography".
Congratulations, Iren...
We warmly welcome Prof. Philipp Pelz, who started his professorship for Computational Materials Microscopy at the IMN in August this year.
Before joining the IMN, he was a postdoctoral researcher working on computational electron microscopy with Prof. Mary Scott in the Materials Science...
