We combine our efforts and facilities to advance imaging
Our ambition is to image with nanometric resolution while at the same time identifying the materials.
Complete characterization requires information not only on the surface or bulk chemical components, but also on stereometric features such as size, distance, and homogeneity in three-dimensional space. A single analytical method, data aquisition routines and analysis, are frequently not sufficient and misleading. Instead, new multi-modal image correlation approaches are required, enhancing the spatial resolution to nanometers or better and facilitating the correlation of different physical properties.
