Electron Ptychographic Tomography

High resolution transmission electron microscopy data is often two-dimensional, however, tomography can be used to collect essential specimen information in all three dimensions. This project will explore the new area of electron ptychography collected tomographically. Ptychography has been proven useful in radiation sensitive materials that have heterogenous structures. By advancing the work to collect tomograms, the techniques developed in this project will impact the growing structural biology community, energy and battery materials which all require 3D high resolution characterisation of sensitive structures in their native environments. This project work will be best suited to a candidate with a strong mathematical, computational or physical sciences background with an interest experimental electron microscopy.
