Workshop on Electrochemistry in Liquid TEM and on Orientation/Phase Mapping in Liquid
A workshop on Electrochemistry in Liquid TEM and on Orientation/Phase Mapping in Liquid has been organized by Nanomegas and Protochips in the University of Picardy Jules Verne, in Amiens on May.
The workshop (supported by the ESTEEM-3 consortium) has been successful with more than 30 participants coming from various European countries (France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic) including University of Picardy-LRCS local participants. Tutorials (theoretical presentations and laboratory sessions) were focused about the potentials of liquid cell TEM imaging with a special focus on Poseidon EC experiments, as well as on performing nm scale orientation and phase mapping in various materials (metals, alloys, nanoparticles, battery related samples, minerals).
During the 2.5 day workshop it has been demonstrated an electrochemistry in-situ LCTEM experiment and also (one of the first experiments of its kind) in-situ orientation/phase maps of nanoparticles within a Poseidon liquid cell. Participants have learnt to extract useful texture information from orientation/phase maps with ASTAR technique and better understand liquid cell concept and applications with Protochips liquid holders.
