MS 1: Energy-related materials and catalysts

Enhancing the photocatalytic performance of carbon nitrides through controlled local structure modification

The revival of polymers, organic molecular/carbon-rich materials and composites thereof is not only due to the development of high-efficiency (semi)conductors and their enhanced environmental stability. Basic reactants appear unlimited prospectively yielding sustainable products at globally needed amounts. Those materials already contribute to the global energy revolution and facilitate a vast variety of applications such as energy conversion/storage, (flexible) printed electronics, catalysis, rapid prototyping, lightweight construction as well as drug delivery. The serious issue of microplastics in the environment needs to be addressed, e.g., by means of biodegradable material design.
This session will cover novel micro- and nanocharacterization techniques (like 4D-STEM, UHR-EELS, cryo-EM, X-ray micro-spectroscopy, fluorescence OM) and modern sample preparation (like plasma-FIB cross-sectioning, (cryo-)ultramicrotomy, plunge freezing) to investigate individual materials (molecules, thin films, particles, fibers), composites and complex devices for understanding structure formation, function, and degradation. It includes modern in situ methodology stressing strategies to minimize electron-beam induced alterations.

Technological advances steadily push the limits of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). In recent years, novel developments in cryo-EM instrumentation as well as newly established workflows enabled groundbreaking insights in both, life sciences and material sciences.
In this session we will discuss new developments in experimental cryogenic techniques, cryo-sample preparation as well as instrumental capabilities applied across different fields.
Contributions are welcome from, but not restricted to, the following areas: SEM, FIB, TEM, STEM and CLEM at cryogenic temperatures, including hardware improvements, cryo-stages, cryogenic sample preparation techniques used for EM, measurements of local temperature as well as image processing for cryo-EM.
