Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy for Battery Materials and Interphases

Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy for Battery Materials and Interphases WebinarPlay

Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy for Battery Materials and Interphases. Owing to recent developments in cryogenic TEM for materials science, it becomes possible to image Li-based battery materials in the TEM without side reactions and beam damage. The chemistry and nanostructure of the SEI can now be visualized and directly correlated to battery performance, offering unprecedented insight into electrochemical behavior and aging phenomena within batteries. In this talk, William Huang highlighted his recent work using cryo-TEM to understand SEI properties and failure modes in next-generation silicon and metallic lithium anodes. Video Credit: Gatan Inc.

Handling In-Situ Video Data in GMS 3 Webinar. Modern CMOS-based TEM cameras are capable of generating data in quantities too large to manually analyze every frame. It is not uncommon to generate hundreds of GB of data in a single session if capturing data with high spatial and temporal resolution. The key challenge is finding and extracting from the complete data set the minimal range of data that contains the desired information so that this can be analyzed in detail to yield a scientific conclusion.
