Our Services

Industry Services
With a continuing tradition of excellence, we are trying to bridge the gap between academic research and pratical problem solving as well as industrial needs.

European EELS & EFTEM School
The joint FELMI/European EELS & EFTEM School is an intense 4-day hands-on laboratory workshop that will take you step-by-step through the acquisition and analysis of Energy Filtered TEM (EFTEM) and STEM-EELS data. The workshop will utilize the state of the art facilities at FELMI-ZFE including a monochromated probe-corrected Titan (S)TEM with a DualEELS GIF Quantum EELS system.

SEM Course
You want to solve analytical problems? You feel you need more experience using scanning electron microscopes? You are interested in materials like steel, ceramics, semiconductors, biological samples and many more? You would like to bring your own sample? Feel free to do so! Our SEM Course will provide to these questions!

Spectral Tuning of Plasmonic Activity in 3D Nanostructures via High-Precision Nano-Printing

Spectral Tuning of Plasmonic Activity in 3D Nanostructures via High-Precision Nano-Printing Content In this study we have successfully demonstrated that planar and 3-dimensional plasmonically active gold nanostructures can be reliably produced via FEBID and fine-tuned to generate resonances at desired wavelengths and spatial positions. As model systems, planar Au nanowires and 3D nanotips of different geometries are printed using FEBID and their plasmonic activities characterized by STEM-EELS measurements. The results are supplemented by corresponding simulations using the MNPBEM toolbox, which…

ASTEM – The Story Behind

Being able to see and analyse materials at atomic resolution, has been a strong motivation for improving the electron microscope. However, the resolution of the conventional transmission electron microscope (TEM) was limited to around 0.2 nanometre, which is slightly larger than the diameter of atoms.
