Research Topics

The electron microscopy group at Empa carries out independet research projects and is involved in various collaborative research projects. Some research topics are of methodogical character, aiming at advancing imaging and analysis methods in electron microscopy, others are of applied nature where advanced characterization methods are employed to advance the understanding of the structure-property relation of novel functional (nano-)materials.
