Electron Microscopy plays a critical role in almost every area of modern science and engineering. The course attempts to show the remarkably versatile world of electron microscopy starting from the basics of electron-matter interactions to resolving atoms or the sophisticated generation of 3-dimensional reconstructions of molecule structures. An interdisciplinary range of examples stretching from Materials to Biological samples will be presented and discussed. The class will include a visit to the Electron Microscopy Center.
