Abstract Electron microscope is a tool for imaging, diffraction and spectroscopy. Through these techniques, we can obtain shape information, crystallographic details, and chemical composition of the object on a very fine scale in a given microstructure. Thanks to these multi capabilities electron microscope has emerged as an instrument for complete characterization of nano scale microstructure of materials such as catalysis nano particles, polymer nanowire. In this tutorial an overview of different electron microscopy techniques, including scanning and transmission electron microscopy will be given. We also introduce cutting-edge KBSI electron microscopy technologies such as aberration correction equipment, phase contrast imaging, low-dose microscopy, STEM detectors, 3D tomography, liquid cell imaging and environmental electron microscopy technologies that can be bridged to chemistry.
