The Skill Path on Electron Microscopy was organized at AGH-UST within the KMM-NoE Knowledge-based Multicomponent Materials for Durable and Safe Performance.
The programme of the School comprised lectures and laboratories on the following topics:
 

  • SEM basics and SEM microanalysis,
  • TEM basics,
  • TEM sample preparation,
  • Electron diffraction,
  • High Resolution Electron Microscopy,
  • Analytical Electron Microscopy,
  • Orientation Imaging Microscopy,
  • Quantitative characterization of microstructure by EM methods (example: Ni-base superalloys),
  • Identification of phases in multiphase materials by EM methods (example: multilayered Ti -base alloys),
  • TEM studies of intermetallics, new Al alloys, amorphous zirconium and Ni-base composites
  • The Skill Path was attended by 37 participants from 11 countries.
  • The programme of the School consisted of 11 invited lectures which have been published in School Proceedings.
