AEML lab opens at KIST
The Advanced Electron Microscopy Laboratory officially opens at KIST's Advanced Analysis and Data Center.
A New Chapter for Electron Microscopy at KIST
In January 2024, the Advanced Electron Microscopy Laboratory (AEML) officially opened its doors at the Advanced Analysis and Data Center (AADC), Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST).
The lab is led by Dr. Young-Woon Byeon, who brings extensive experience in in-situ/operando TEM, 4D-STEM, and AI/ML-assisted electron microscopy from his postdoctoral research at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Our Mission
AEML aims to push the boundaries of materials characterization by:
- Developing advanced damage-less TEM analysis techniques
- Applying correlative analysis across multiple length scales
- Integrating AI/ML into the electron microscopy workflow
- Supporting collaborative research in energy storage materials
Facilities
The lab is equipped with state-of-the-art instruments including the Titan probe Cs-corrected S/TEM, Talos F200X, Tecnai G2 F20, and Glacios 2 cryo-TEM. A next-generation Spectra Ultra double Cs-corrected S/TEM is currently being installed.
Join Us
We are actively recruiting postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and interns who are passionate about electron microscopy and materials science. Visit our Openings page for more details.
