The Center for Accelerated Maturation of Materials (CAMM) at Ohio State Univ. (OSU), Columbus, has become the first North American site to install and begin using FEI's, Hillsboro, Ore., Titan 80-300 S/TEM, the world's highest-resolution, commercially-available scanning/transmission electron (S/TEM) microscope.

"CAMM embarked upon a joint project with FEI Company to develop an advanced S/TEM platform aimed at providing researchers with an accurate physical picture of the materials they are modeling. We are enthusiastic to see that it has resulted in such a powerful tool;' says Hamish Fraser, director of CAMM FEI adds, "Shortly after the installation at OSU was completed, the system was able to produce an information limit around 0.7 [Angstrom] and atomic...
