Welcome to our GRK 1896 Homepage!
The doctoral program GRK 1896 “In situ Microscopy with Electrons, X-rays and Scanning Probes” combines, for the first time, three pillars of nanocharacterization into a structured research training group. The main objective of this program is to provide the next generation of scientists and engineers with comprehensive, method-spanning and interdisciplinary training in the application of cutting-edge nanocharacterization tools to materials and device development. Our PhD candidates are well-positioned in a network of international collaborations and highly trained in multiple, complementary techniques, providing them with an essential foundation for a successful career in the field of advanced materials and devices development.
GRK research results in novel apporach for determining the number of layers of 2D materials
In a recent publication, a team of researchers of the GRK 1896, TU Dresden and Fraunhofer IISB developed an approach for conclusively determining the number of layers of different 2D materials within Van-der... Continue
Lead by a GRK member, FAU scientists develop method for cleaning surfaces at the nanoscale
A team of scientists at Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) has developed a novel mechanical cleaning method for surfaces on the nanoscale. The technique successfully removes even the tin... Continue

In a recent publication, researchers of our GRK present in situ investigations of reactions at a solid-liquid-gas interface using liquid cell transmission electron microscopy. The work published open access in Advanced Materials Interfaces (Art. No. 1901027: https://www.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/1... Continue
This term's regular GRK seminar started with an excursion to the largest CT factory in the world. The GRK1896 members got insight into the assembling steps from the on short notice delivery from an logistic partner of the individual parts towards the final product in the Siemens Healthineers factory...
