Infrastrukturzugehörigkeit:
Das Transmissionselektronenmikroskopie (TEM) Labor ist eine moderne Einrichtung am GFZ Potsdam, ausgestattet mit einem Transmissionselektronenmikroskop vom Typ FEI Tecnai F20X-Twin und einer Focused Ion Beam (FIB) Anlage für die Probenpräparation. Das TEM-Labor erlaubt die Untersuchung von Kristallstrukturen, Mikrostrukturen und die chemische Zusammensetzung von Festkörpern bis zu nahezu atomarer Auflösung.

Transmission Electron Microscope
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) are patterned after Transmission Light Microscopes and will yield similar information.
Morphology: The size, shape and arrangement of the particles, which make up the specimen as well as their relationship to each other on the scale of atomic diameters.
Crystallographic Information: The arrangement of atoms in the specimen and their degree of order, detection of atomic-scale defects in areas a few nanometers in diameter
Compositional Information (if so equipped): The elements and compounds the sample is composed of and their relative ratios, in areas a few nanometers in diameter
A TEM works much like a slide projector. A projector shines a beam of light through (transmits) the slide, as the light passes through it is affected by the structures and objects on the slide. These effects result in only certain parts of the light beam being transmitted through certain parts of the slide. This transmitted beam is then projected onto the viewing screen, forming an enlarged image of the slide. TEMs work the same way except that they shine a beam of electrons (like the light) through the specimen (like the slide). Whatever part is transmitted is projected onto a phosphor screen for the user to see. [Source: University of Nebraska-Lincoln] (Source: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2023.
