This is a practical internship program focused on the structure and chemical analyses of Earth materials by analytical transmission electron microscopy (ATEM). It is particularly suitable to Ph.D. students, Post-Docs, and scientists who are interested in but not yet familiar with the electron diffraction technique, micro-structural observation, and nanometer-scaled chemical analysis of natural and synthetic materials by ATEM. Anyone who would like to become familiar with these techniques is welcome.

The internship consists of the following program:,

• Lectures on fundamental crystallography, electron diffraction, and EDS analysis for thin foil specimens
• Fundamental training course for ATEM operation

There is no limitation on the number of participants for the lectures. However, the number for the ATEM operation should be limited to around 4-5 people at one time. In the case more than 4-5 people want to operate the ATEM, an additional training course will be considered. It is possible to only participate in the lectures.
