Transmission Scanning Electron Microscopy for Materials Characterization

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

Our goal is to develop low-energy transmission electron diffraction, imaging, and spectroscopy in the scanning electron microscope (SEM), for determining microscopic structure, defect types, and interface character in structural materials; ultrathin films; nanoparticles; and potentially, biological material systems. Successful adaptation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) concepts to the SEM can lead to numerous potential impact areas in the characterization of materials, including significantly increased quantitative anal...

Grantor Contact Informationhttps://www.nationalacademies.org/our-work/rap/nrc-research-associateship-programs/#sectionContactGrantor Emailrap@nas.eduOther 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.
