State-of-the-art facility will support researchers aiming to translate chemical understanding into new materials and products
Imagine being able to ‘see’ atomic motion as it takes place in a chemical reaction. That’s the promise of a new £124 million national electron microscope facility to be built in Cheshire, UK. The aim is to enable researchers to translate an understanding of physicochemical transitions into new materials and products to address some of society’s biggest challenges, from climate change to drug discovery.
