Special Issue on Advanced In-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy for Multi-scale Manufacturing: Dynamics in Matter and Process
Submission Date: 2024-05-31

This special issue is designed to provide an international forum on the progress and further possibilities of in situ TEM for the development of advanced materials and innovative technologies.

Special issue information:

Energy, climate, and health-related materials are always of utmost interest to the human society. Recent world upheavals and instrument progress bring in situ TEM to a new level of pursuit for its merit to bridge fundamental research and industrialization across atomic to micro scales.

This special issue is designed to provide an international forum on the progress and further possibilities of in situ TEM for the development of advanced materials and innovative technologies. The topics will cover, but are not limited to:

    Nucleation and growth of low-dimensional materials.
    Dynamics in catalysis and energy processes.
    Advances in novel in situ TEM instruments and methodology.
    Unraveling complex processes using in situ TEM under extreme conditions like elevated stress, temperature, pressure and irradiation.
