Project

TEM analyses (Prof. Aude Simar).

The main objective of the TEM characterizations is to elucidate the fundamental micro/nanoscopic mechanisms controlling healing of damages in Aluminum alloys elaborated in UCLouvain. Ex-situ advanced TEM techniques such as aberration corrected TEM, automatic crystallographic orientation and nanostrain mapping in TEM as well as analytical TEM will be used to characterize defects and interfaces while quantified in-situ TEM testing will be performed in order to directly observe the mechanisms under interest inside the microscope. TEM thin foils for the ex-situ and in-situ TEM characterizations will be prepared in EMAT.
