The annual “CENEM Workshop on Advanced Electron and X-ray Microscopy Techniques” took place in Bad Rodach during 5-7. Nov. this year. Extended presentations by our motivated colleagues provided very good overview of our on-going research. Intense discussions have stimulated sparks in new research id...

Nadine Buchinger won the best poster award during the Materials Science and Engineering Congress (MSE) held between 26 and 28. Sep. 2018 at the Darmstadt University of Technology, with her outstanding contributions to the work of "investigating the 3D-structures of oxide layers of Co-base superalloy...

Dr.-Ing. Benjamin Apeleo Zubiri from the Institute of Micro- and Nanostructure Research (IMN, Prof. Erdmann Spiecker) and the Center for Nanoanalysis and Electron Microscopy (CENEM) was awarded the “Best Oral Presentation Award” at the ”International Microscopy Congress (IMC19)” which took place in ...

In the 1940s, scientists first explained how Materials can deform plastically by atomic-scale line defects called dislocations. These defects can be understood as tiny carpet folds that can move one part of a material relative to the other without spending a lot of energy. Many technical application...

The PhD defence of Ms. Yolita Maria Eggeler took place on 25. July 2018. With her beautiful work of “Nano- and Microstructural Evolution in Ni- and Co-based Single Crystal Superalloys”, she has been awarded the title Dr.-Ing. Her thesis work is part of the collaborative project "SFB Transregio 10...
