New collaboration will develop microscopy techniques for imaging chemical reactions at the atomic scale

Scientists from the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), University of Chicago, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Argonne National Laboratory are collaborating on new electron microscopy techniques to allow the imaging of chemical reactions at the atomic scale. The Center for Multimodal Observations for Single Atom Imaging of Chemistry, or MOSAIC, was funded this fall through a $1.8 million grant from the National Science Foundation.
