Free Short Webinar: Using Electron Microscopy to Probe the Performance of Advanced Nuclear Fuels

On 10 October 2024, the German Society for Materials Science (DGM) invites you to a free webinar that presents the latest findings in electron microscopy for the investigation of nuclear fuels. This exciting event offers you the opportunity to learn about the latest developments and technologies in this field.

The webinar, led by Dr. Robert W. Harrison from the University of Manchester and Min Wu (Ph.D.) from Thermo Fisher Scientific, will give participants insights into advanced electron microscopy techniques and their application in nuclear fuel research. The experts will present the new FIB/SEM and TEM facilities at the University of Manchester and show how these help to explore the behavior of materials under extreme conditions. 

They will explain how electron microscopy is used to assess the radiation damage to materials – a crucial factor in optimizing the safety of nuclear reactors. You will also learn more about the behavior of nuclear fuels in corrosive environments and how these insights help to improve material stability and durability. 

The webinar will also highlight the development and commissioning of the new alpha-radionuclide electron microscopy facility in Manchester. Case studies will be used to illustrate the impact of these technologies on nuclear materials research. The event offers an excellent opportunity to interact directly with experts and gain valuable insights into the latest research.
