Recent advances in in-situ and tomographic methods using (scanning) transmission electron microscopy ((S)TEM) provide the unique possibility of obtaining 3-dimensional (3D) information and in-situ studies of gas-solid chemical reactions on the nanometer scale. In combination with the well-known analytical techniques, electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) we can obtain 3D, dynamic, analytical, and structural information down to the atomic level.

The JEOL JEM-2500SE STEM/TEM at UC Davis (CHMS) is equipped with a Schottky field-emission source operated at 200 kV, a post column Gatan imaging filter (863 GIF Tridiem) for EELS and a Thermo System Six for EDXS.
