CT8 Electron Microscopy
The first session will describe the basics of electron diffraction and the main differences from X-ray and neutron diffraction, particularly as regards the strength of the interaction and the complications caused by multiple scattering. The advantages of the method in determining unit cell dimensions will also be discussed.
Session two will concentrate on the advantages conferred by forming images with electrons but also on the inherent problems such as the effect of aberrations on the ultimate resolution. If there is sufficient time, a consideration of the information available in high resolution images will be made.
Number of sessions: 2

The Characterisation Techniques lectures introduce and focus upon facilities available in the Department and will help to underpin your research in a very practical sense. These lectures will run annually in the Michaelmas Term to serve as a solid basis for those beginning to carry out experimental research in the Department. Attendance at these lectures will provide you with the ability to choose the right technique(s) to answer the questions that you have regarding the molecules and/or materials you have made. If you would like to know any further information about our Departmental Facilities, you may also look at the relevant web pages, which you will find at: http://www.ch.cam.ac.uk/analytical-data-services.
A series of two 1 hour lectures
