NIST Nano- and Atomic-Resolution Electron Microscopy of Three-Dimensional Structures

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

The modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) is capable of atomic-resolution structural and chemical imaging. However, such data typically only represents a two-dimensional (2-D) projection of the underlying physical or chemical structure. To characterize the three-dimensional (3-D) makeup of a specimen, electron tomography is often employed. This involves the computational determination of 3-D features of a specimen from a series of their 2-D projections. By carefully preparing the specimen, designing the experimental acqui...

Grantor Contact InformationAndrew Anthony Herzing, Phone: 301.975.2860Grantor Emailandrew.herzing@nist.govOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
