LETTER FROM THE CHAIR
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I am happy to report on another successful year for EMAG and would like to say thank-
you to you as members for your continued support. IOP now ask the membership to vote
on committee changes and for us this will be an ongoing feature since EMAG has always
operated on a two year rolling progression for the Group Officer positions on the
committee. Thus, I would first like to thank our out-going Chair Prof Sarah Haigh
(University of Manchester) for her fantastic work over the last two years. As the in-coming
Chair I will be trying to build on her success with the support of the Group’s new honorary
secretary and treasurer, Prof Ana Sanchez. I would also like to welcome our new
committee member for 2018, Dr Miryam Arredondo (Queen’s University Belfast). Special
thanks are also due to our outgoing committee member, Dr ZiYou Li (University of
Birmingham) for her fantastic contributions to EMAG over many years.
I would like to thank Ana Sanchez for her role in leading the organisation of the highly
successful EMAG 2018 meeting in Warwick last July. These alternate year ‘workshops’
are going from strength to strength and this year we had 120+ delegates focussed on
discussing the analysis of beam sensitive materials. The meeting had a real community
feel to it with many insightful presentations and discussions in amongst the summer
heatwave (see report on page 11). Look out for the upcoming Special Issue in Micron
associated with this meeting (guest edited by Dr Tom Slater, ePSIC -Diamond Light
Source).
Plans for this year are already well established for our full 3½ day biennial EMAG
conference which will again be held as part of the MMC conference in Manchester from 1-
4 July 2019 (mmc-series.org.uk). Abstract submission is open now with a deadline of 15
February 2019 (https://www.mmc-series.org.uk/conference/emag.html). We have a
fantastic group of invited speakers already confirmed and are seeking submissions on
topics across the full range of electron microscopy and analysis - I encourage you all to
submit your recent work and look forward to seeing many of you there!
Finally I’d like to thank Ana Sanchez for putting together this excellent newsletter – we
welcome your contributions for future issues!
Best wishes,
Andy Brown

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS by young scientists
Engineered graphene liquid cells for high resolution STEM imaging and spectroscopy in liquids By Daniel Kelly, University of Manchester Attending EMAG was one of the highlights of my year in 2018 as it was an opportunity to hear from eminent microscopists, discuss some of the challenges currently facing the community and learn about the best practices for operating an electron microscope, with special attention this year given to controlling (and correctly reporting) electron dose and conducting proper control experiments alongside in situ techniques. I was also fortunate enough to be given the award for ‘Best Oral Presentation’ for my presentation on engineered graphene liquid cells for liquid-phase TEM which I have summarised here as a research highlight. The ability to study wet specimens with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been facilitated by the development of liquid cells, where thin layers of liquid are sealed between electron transparent windows which can withstand the high vacuum inside the TEM column. This offers new perspectives on nanoscale processes that occur in liquids and has made hydrated and vacuum-sensitive materials viable as TEM specimens.
The spatial resolution routinely achieved for conventional TEM is limited by scattering of the incident beam by the cell windows and liquid layer. Graphene liquid cells have been constructed to overcome these issues, however current designs are based on the formation of pockets of liquid between two graphene sheets, providing no means to control the dimensions of the liquid layer.
The work I presented at EMAG aims to address this limitation by using graphene windows with a patterned hexagonal boron nitride spacer. Graphene windows are atomically thick and cause minimal scattering of the probe. Combining these with a boron nitride spacer means the windows are minimally bowed due to graphene’s high tensile strength and the liquid layer thickness can be controlled by the spacer dimensions. Both energy dispersive and electron energy loss spectroscopies (EDS, EELS), as well as atomic force microscopy were used to confirm the cells are fully hydrated and stable under an 80 kV electron beam.
To demonstrate the effectiveness of these cells, my colleagues and I were able to observe the formation and dynamics of ultra-small (1 – 4 nm) metal nanoparticles in suspension. It emerged that the particles exhibit behaviour similar to classical diffusion but are exceptionally slow and subject to anomalous events likely arising from the confined environment of the cell and electrostatic effects induced by the electron beam.

When gold nanoparticles were in a solution containing iron ions all encapsulated in the cells, the precipitation of iron oxide via beam-induced reduction was observed using EDS spectrum imaging. Elemental maps showing the preferential deposition of ~1.5 nm layers of iron on vertices located between particles were obtained with nanometre-level spatial resolution, an order of magnitude improvement compared with EDS spectrum imaging in conventional liquid cells.
Comparison of Atomic Scale Dynamics for 14 Kinds of Transition Metal Nanocatalysts
By Kecheng Cao, Ulm University
The atomistic pathways of chemical transformations facilitated by nanocatalysts
remain largely unknown due to uncertainties associated with the highly labile
structures of the metal nanoclusters, changing during the reaction and
significantly affecting the reaction pathways. Kecheng Cao and his collaborators
reveal and explore reactions of nm-sized clusters of 14 technologically important
metals in transparent carbon-nano-test-tubes using time-series imaging by CS-
corrected TEM employing the electron beam simultaneously as an imaging tool
and stimulus for the reactions. They discovered the metal-carbon bonding and
their dynamics at the scale of single atoms and arranging, for the first time, the
transition metals in the order of their binding with carbon and their catalytic
activity, which differ significantly from the order in the Periodic Table of Elements.
It is revealed that the metal nanoclusters become more dynamic once they are

engaged in reactions with carbon – one of the most unexpected outcomes of this
analysis, having significant implications for understanding the atomistic workings
of catalytic cycles at the nanoscale. This work provides a new guide for the
development of better catalysts for important processes involving C-C bond
dissociation and formation. These works are published in Nature communications
(DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-05831-z) and Nano Letters (DOI:
10.1021/acs.nanolett.8b02657). Kecheng Cao presented these works at EMAG
2018 and was awarded runner-up Oral presentation.

Electrodeposition Dynamics from Single Atom to Crystalline Nanoparticle
By Haytham E. M. Hussein, University of Warwick
The biggest challenges, which limit uptake of the electrodeposition methodology
as the preferred approach for nanoparticle and thin materials synthesis is a lack
of information concerning the early stages of metal nucleation and growth at the
necessary resolution. Whilst high resolution microscopy techniques are providing
insights into the process of phase formation e.g. in-situ electrochemical
transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning cell electrochemical
microscopy, they still suffer a lack of resolution at the atomic level. In this work,
the development of a new platform for dual functionality electrochemical-TEM is
described based on ultra-thin, freestanding plates of boron doped diamond
(BDD), which can be made electron beam transparent. The BDD-TEM plate can
EMAG Group newsletter Jan 2019

be operated in identical-location mode (in the TEM) where electrodeposition can
be initiated on the platform, the platform removed from solution, imaged, replaced
in solution, deposition re-started, platform removed from solution and imaged in
exactly the same location, repeatedly. In this way it is possible to track the
emergence of single atoms (of Au) on the BDD surface, in response to an
electrodeposition potential, and the growth and assembly of these atoms, as a
function of time and potential, into crystalline nanoparticles, using an aberration
correction TEM. Furthermore, the BDD-TEM platform offers considerable
advantages over conventional carbon film TEM grids, which can contaminate,
peel and tear very easily, limiting them very often to one shot use. The work was
published in ACS Nano (DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.8b04089).
Haytham Hussein presented the work as a poster during the EMAG 2018
conference held at the University of Warwick and received the poster runner up
prize.

becomes disordered as a result, followed by recrystallization.

IMC19, Sydney
By Rob Hooley, PhD student, University of Leeds
The 19th International Microscopy Congress organised by the International
Federation of Societies for Microscopy (IFSM) took place in Sydney this year,
only the second time it had been held in Australia following Canberra in 1974.
The overarching theme of the IMC19
conference was “bridging the
sciences” and following opening
speeches from the conference chairs,
the president of the Australian
Microscopy and Microanalysis Society,
and Australia’s chief scientist the
message of microscopy in all its forms
being an essential technique
supporting almost all fields of scientific
research was really brought home.
The conference began in earnest after a traditional welcome to country ceremony
from representatives of the Gadigal clan of the Eora nation, followed by a plenary
lecture from Nobel laureate Prof. Dan Shechtman on the role of TEM in the
discovery of quasi-crystalline materials. With 12 parallel oral sessions covering
463 talks, along with poster sessions and mini-oral presentations, from over 2000
attendees, there was a lot of science to bridge over this conference.
With so much choice available, I sampled a multitude of sessions, including those
on: nanoscaled materials, STEM/TEM instrumentation, in-situ microscopy and
amorphous materials. Some particular highlights were presentations on “High
Spatial Resolution X-ray Microanalysis of Soft-Matter in the AEM” from Dr Nestor
Zaluzec, “Compressive sensing in Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy”
from Dr Andrew Stevens, “Thick (3D) sample imaging using iDPC-STEM” from
Dr Ivan Lazić and “Exploring biomineral chemistry at the nanometer scale” from
Dr Marta de Frutos. The plenaries and award recipient lectures at the IFSM
symposium were also highly interesting, including those from Archie Howie,
Christian Colliex and Jennifer Dionne.
EMAG Group newsletter Jan 2019

I was presenting towards the end of the conference in the “Amorphous and
disordered materials, liquid crystals” session, my talk was entitled “Dose limited
TEM and STEM characterisation of electron beam sensitive inorganic
nanomaterials”. Covering the development and applications of low-dose STEM
imaging for structural analysis in calcium carbonate based nanoparticles, and
received some interesting questioning.
The conference came at an
opportune time as I am
nearing the end of my PhD
and gave me a lot to think
about in terms of the
interdisciplinary applications
of my research, especially
thanks to some of the interesting discussions held at the conference. As my first
international conference, it was a memorable experience, and hopefully the first
of many more to come.
I would like to thank both the Institute of Physics and the Royal Microscopical
Society for their student travel grants which supported my attendance at IMC19.
2018 SuperSTEM Summer School: Advanced Topics on Electron Microscopy: Theory meets experiment
By Prof. Quentin Ramasse, SuperSTEM The 2018 SuperSTEM Summer School was held between the 29th of June and
the 4th of July 2018 on the Sci-Tech Daresbury Campus, where the SuperSTEM
Laboratory is located. This year's event was co-organised with the Scientific
Computing Department of the Science & Technology Facilities Council
(https://www.scd.stfc.ac.uk) and CCP9, the Collaborative Computational Project
for the Study of the Electronic Structure of Condensed Matter
(https://www.ccp9.ac.uk/).
Building on the established series of schools held at SuperSTEM every two years,
this year’s event acknowledged the increasing need for theoretical methodologies
to rationalise experimental findings. In addition to topics in experimental scanning
transmission electron microscopy (STEM), including advanced instrumentation,
principles of aberration correction and diagnosis, imaging theory and simulation,
energy dispersive X-ray electron (EDX) energy loss spectroscopies (EELS,
EMAG Group newsletter Jan 2019
14
including in the optical and vibrational regimes), this year’s school delved for the
first time into advanced computational topics. Half of the school program was thus
dedicated to electronic structure theory and calculations as well as to
methodologies for the simulation of EELS and other spectroscopy data.
A very international contingent of 28 participants stemming from 14 countries
enjoyed lectures by world-leading experts complemented by extensive hands-on
practical sessions over the 6 days of a densely packed scientific programme. A
particular emphasis was the requirement for every participant to be given real
hands-on experience on the electron microscopes housed at the Laboratory. The
participants had the opportunity to operate all three of the dedicated STEM
instruments of the SuperSTEM facility (an aberration-corrected VG HB501, a
Nion UltraSTEM100 and a monochromated Nion UltraSTEM100MC-Hermes),
including trying their hand at phonon spectroscopy in the electron microscope. In
addition to the SuperSTEM instruments, further practicals were held at the
neighbouring Daresbury Hitachi High Technologies “Collaboration Laboratory”,
where participants had the opportunity to perform imaging and quantitative X-ray
Spectroscopy in a Scanning Electron Microscope (Hitachi SU8020 SEM/STEM
instrument). Computer practicals included the latest processing and interpretation
software, while one and a half days of the school were dedicated to hands-on
band structure and spectral calculations in a computer laboratory.
Thanks to the particularly pleasant weather the beautiful Cheshire countryside
enjoyed this summer, all attendees were able to take part in a number of social
events throughout the weekend, including a BBQ by the scenic Bridgewater
canal. Attendees were also given the opportunity to present a poster about their
own research, in order to further stimulate discussions and interaction. A prize for
the best poster was awarded at the end of the school banquet to Mr. Eoghan
O’Connell, from the University of Limerick in Ireland, after consultation with a
panel of the school’s instructors.
The Summer School was made possible through kind support from the
Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), CCP9, the
European Microscopy Society, the Royal Microscopical Society, Nion Co., Hitachi
High Technologies, Bruker GmbH and the Science and Technology Facilities
Council (STFC).
As this is a biennial event, there will be no school in 2019, but we look forward to
welcoming you for another successful instalment of the school in the summer of

Facility Instrumentation Upgrades
The SuperSTEM facility is looking forward to a particularly exciting year in 2019,
with a number of instrumentation upgrades due to be delivered and
commissioned that will enhance the capabilities offered to our user community.
These include:
• A new ultra-high resolution EEL spectrometer to allow the monochromated
SuperSTEM3 instrument to reach a target of 4 meV energy resolution and
further explore the ultra-low loss regime, including the new and exciting field of
vibrational spectroscopy in the STEM.
• New, fast “4D-STEM” imaging detectors on both SuperSTEM2 and
SuperSTEM3 for applications such as ptychography, differential phase contrast
and more.
• An upgraded EDX spectrometer to provide larger solid angles (100 mm2
detector, estimated 0.75 Sr solid angle) for X-ray spectroscopy on
SuperSTEM2.
