Abstract
Environmental transmission or scanning transmission electron microscope is ideally suited to observe gas solid interactions at nanoscale. It is shown that the time and temperature resolved data, obtained from in situ observations, can be used to obtain reaction rates and understand the kinetics of the processes. Low or high magnification images provide the change in length, area or volume with time at constant temperature and pressure conditions during nitridation of CuโCr thin films, deposition of Au particles, growth of Si nanowire and carbon nanotubes. Effect of electron beam is estimated by making observations with and without constant electron beam exposure. Quantitative electron energy loss spectroscopy is employed to measure the reduction rate of Ce^+4^ in pure ceria, mixed oxides (ceriaโzirconia) and catalyst (Rhโceriaโzirconia) powders. Microsc. Res.

AbstractรThe penetration behavior of gallium into aluminum grain boundaries was compared with Al grain boundary properties estimated from atomistic computer models. Penetration speeds in individual grain boundaries were measured in situ in the transmission electron microscope (TEM), and the observed
The state of short-range order (SRO) and the ordering process in Cu 3 Pt have been studied by the in-situ transmission electron microscope observation method. In order to detect weak diffraction-patterns and weak image-contrasts, an imaging plate system and/or digital-process of video-recorded signa
