Convergence imaging analysis technologies are developed by using advanced electronic microscopes. In addition, research support is actively provided, and domestic and international joint studies are conducted by performing structural analysis of nanomaterials and developing analytical equipment.

Research Focus

  • Establishment of biomedical convergence imaging analysis technology
  • Development of advanced nano-bio equipment element technologies and nano-bio equipment
  • Development of analytical technologies tailored to materials and functions
  • Development of energy convergence materials

Representative Research Cases

Analysis of nano-crystals associated with negatively stained biological specimen

  • We attempted high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) and electron crystallographic analysis for the detailed characterization of negatively stained biological specimen, focusing on physical state and chemical composition of the stain molecules (uranium dioxide). Moreover, we observed the gradual growth of the crystals when the accumulated electron dose.
