Dear colleagues,
we are pleased to invite your contributions to the Session on 
Microscopy and spectroscopy of materials for power generation and for energy conversion and storage

Eva Olsson, Chalmers University, Gothenburg, Sweden
WolfgangJaeger, University of Kiel, Kiel, Germany
Feng Wang, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton NY, USA

M&M 2014  Microscopy & Microanalysis 2014
Microscopy Society of America, August 3-7, 2014, Hartford, Connecticut, USA

Among the most important challenges are reduction of energy consumption and environmentally friendly power generation and conversion. The performance of materials for energy technology is determined by their functional structure. This symposium will cover aspects of structure, properties and life-cycle analysis of materials for power generation, energy conversion, renewability, storage and reduced energy consumption.

The topics include microscopy and spectroscopy investigations including techniques of Cs aberration correctedelectron microscopy, monochromated spectroscopy and in situ microscopy in

  • Photovoltaics
  • Nuclear technology
  • Fuel cells
  • Ion conductors
  • Energy storage
  • Thermoelectrics
  • Correlation between synthesis, structure and properties
  • Specimen preparation for microscopy studies
