What Are the Challenges Associated with TEM in Catalysis?
While TEM is a powerful tool, it also comes with several challenges:
Sample Preparation: Preparing ultra-thin samples without altering their structure can be difficult, especially for sensitive materials. Beam Damage: The high-energy electron beam can cause damage to the sample, leading to artifacts in the images. Interpretation of Data: The complexity of the data obtained from TEM requires expert knowledge for accurate interpretation.
