Collaborations
As a service and cooperative unit, our group offers the entire workflow from fixation and embedding of samples, to the production and contrasting of ultrathin sections, to image acquisition.
If you are thinking about using TEM analyses in your project, please contact us to discuss feasibility, time schedule and technical details.
We work on a cooperative basis (with co-authorship if possible) and charge a contribution to cover the consumables and cathode hours. Generally, we take over the samples and provide you with images and, if necessary, additional information. The exact nature of our involvement is of course agreed on an individual basis.
If you are thinking about including TEM analyses in a project proposal, please contact us before submitting. We will be happy to help you design an adequate methods section and budget it accordingly.
