Engineering Electrochemical Setups for Electron Microscopy of Liquid Processes

This chapter contains the extended abstracts of the Conference on In-Situ and Correlative Electron Microscopy (CISCEM), held November 6–7, 2012, in Saarbrücken, Germany. The conference was organized by the INM-Leibniz Institute for New Materials. The aim of the conference was to bring together an interdisciplinary group of scientists from the fields of biology, materials science, chemistry, and physics, to discuss future directions of electron microscopy research.

The topics of the different sessions were carbon-based materials, correlative fluorescence and electron microscopy, electron microscopy of biological specimens in their native environment, imaging growth of nanomaterials in liquid, in-situ studies of electronic materials and metals, and studying electrochemistry with liquid cell electron microscopy.

CISCEM was also the scientific opening ceremony of the facility for in-situ electron microscopy based around the newly installed JEOL ARM200 STEM/TEM at the INM..
