The group Electron Microscopy, that builds one part of CENEM, was assigned to the Institute for Biomaterials at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering of the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg. This working group evolved significantly in the last years in terms of staff members and scienti...

On March 18th 2015 the upgrade of CENEM's unique SAXS/GISAXS instrument VAXSTER (Versatile Advanced X-ray Scattering instrumenT ERlangen) started. This includes the full rebuild of the primary instrument part with the 3/4 slit collimation system focusing X-ray mirror and the X-ray source. VAXSTER wi...

This year young researchers interested in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are again invited to participate in the Erlangen TEM school from 23rd - 26th March 2015, organized by Prof. Erdmann Spiecker and his team at the Center for Nanoanalyis and Electron Microscopy (CENEM) of the University o...

In October 2014 the installation of the new transmission electron microscope (TEM) FEI Titan Themis³ 300 was finished. Now the staff of IMN and CENEM is able to perform high quality research using this high-end TEM providing high-resolution imaging as well as high performance analytical investigatio...

The new CENEM research training group "In situ microscopy with electrons, X-rays and scanning probes" GRK 1896 will be kicked off with a symposium on the 7th of November. Through the course of the whole day there will be scientific talks given by the students outlining the course of their project.

The Erlangen TEM-School 2013 takes place November 11th - 14th at the Center for Nanoanalysis and Electron Microscopy (CENEM). 16 national and international participants have the opportunity to learn about conventional and advanced transmission electron microscopy in theoretical and practical session...

Neutrons are a perfect probe for the study of structure and dynamics of condensed matter. The extremely wide range of its applications is due to its unique properties (e.g. zero charge, magnetic moment, isotope dependent scattering). Thus with neutrons the microscopic structure of matter can be dete...
