(Hall 200)

3D/In-Situ Electron Microscopy

Chair:
Dr. Mitsuishi

 This session features the state-of-the-art 3D imaging and in-situ techniques of electron microscopy. The topics of 3D imaging will include from well established techniques of electron tomography to newly emerging techniques of depth sectioning by STEM focus change, and a method using FIB. The topics of in-situ microscopy cover environmental cells with controlling temperature, gas pressure and so forth.

TS-2

(Hall 200)

High Resolution Electron Microscopy

Chair:
Dr. Hara

 Aberration correction technology has revealed a new range of application of electron microscopy for materials research. Recently, other analytical techniques applied with the electron microscopes also improved drastically and energy resolution leaps a lot. The aims of this session is to look toward the future of electron microscopy from overviewing these new technologies to realize much higher spatial and/or energy resolution.

Microscopic Imaging of Spin and Magnetism

Chair:
Dr. Yamauchi

The increasing importance of magnetic materials for energy-efficient motors, high density static memories and spintronics has led to demands for the innovative performance in imaging magnetic domains and spins. The cutting-edge technologies of high lateral, depth and time resolutions are presented for discussion on their capabilities in the materials developments.

Materials Informatics by Advanced Characterization

Chair:
Dr. Yoshikawa

Materials Informatics (MI) have been developed for efficient screening and searching of new functional materials. This session focuses on the potential of the combination of MI technology and advanced characterizations through a discussion of high-throughput measurements, data mining, related database.

GREEN Innovation by Operando Characterization

Chair:
Dr. Masuda

Towards the GREEN innovation, the understanding of key processes in energy-conversion devices, such as fuel cells, rechargeable batteries, solar cells and energy-saving electronics, is very important.
One of the most effective ways is to characterize structure and physical-chemical properties of materials under working conditions in real time, i.e., “Operando”. This session covers cutting-edge technologies of operando characterizations.
