OUR MISSION
The mission of NUS EMF is to bring together an interdisciplinary group of scientists and engineers to collaboratively work at the frontiers of new materials development and advance our collective knowledge on structure–property relationships.
We seek to answer fundamental questions at the heart of materials science, broadly defined. We invite researchers from various disciplines to explore together with us in applying the latest cutting-edge microscopy techniques for their research.
HISTORY
Singapore's first 5th order aberration-corrected STEM was acquired by Professor Stephen Pennycook in 2015, under the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. This microscope, previously placed in the Singapore Synchrotron Light Source facility, served the whole of NUS and other scientific institutes for atomic-scale imaging.
In 2024, EMF was established along with its dedicated lab in E7, and the AC-STEM relocated to its new space in CDE.
