for Electron Microscopy

The National Center for High Resolution Electron Microscopy (nCHREM) offers expertise in imaging, element analysis, and sample preparation for a wide variety of sample types.

A few examples of samples recently imaged at nCHREM

nanoparticles
semiconducting nanowires
crystalline mesoporous materials
nanotubes
protein adsoption on zeolites materials
binders
cells

We have equipment for plunge-freezing of liquids and cryogenic imaging. It is also possible to make thin slices by microtome sectioning, if required.

The facility is situated within the Chemical Center at Lund University, in southern Sweden.
