UConn Opening a New Center for In Situ & Operando TEM in Collaboration With DENSsolutions

At DENSsolutions, we believe that together we can achieve more. So, we are proud to announce our partnership with the University of Connecticut (UConn).
Our contribution
The DENSsolutions Climate MEMS-based Nano-Reactor TEM system will be at the heart of this research center. The system has a unique capacity to probe high-temperature gas-solid reactions with high spatial resolution under ambient pressure, in gaseous environment controlled by sophisticated dynamic gas mixing. Dynamic changes in local site-specific structural information of nanomaterials can be monitored in real-time under realistic reaction conditions.

New Opportunities
As the demands of research need more complex solutions, we want to move towards Operando environmental electron microscopy. Our solutions will allow concurrent mass-spectrometry, calorimetry and chemical analysis during reactions.
These new capabilities will provide unprecedented insight into the correlation between materials dynamics and temporal performance at the fundamental atomic-scale, and will open up a world of research opportunities in heterogeneous catalysis, fuel cells, corrosion, and materials growth and transformation.

“Being able to study the behavior of materials in their native environment has been microscopist’s dream since the birth of TEM. I’m very excited about the InToEM center, which will provide an optimal scientific “sandbox” to explore microscopy as it should be.”

“DENSsolutions’ vision is that in situ and operando TEM can contribute to solving societal challenges like climate change and green/clean technologies.
These new techniques connect microscopy more meaningfully with chemistry, materials research and nanotechnology. Therefore, here at DENSsolutions, we all are very, very excited about being a partner in the InToEM center.
Here, a lot of good things come together: the Materials Science and Engineering Department and Institute of Materials Science of UConn with world-class performance in Materials research, the fantastic facilities of the Business Innovation Center, and the focus and passion of the scientists of INToEM.”
