Research Centre Jülich
Penghan Lu is currently working in Prof. Rafal Dunin-Borkowski’s group at the Ernst Ruska-Centre for Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Electrons in Research Centre Jülich. His current research activities mostly focus on methodology and instrumentation development for electron microscopy, particularly by applying non-conventional optical setup and custom-designed hardware components to specific applications. This includes, but not limited to, low-dose electron phase contrast imaging (iDPC, ptychography, holography, etc.) for challenging materials and biological specimen characterisation, as well as electron beam shaping using thin film masks and structured electromagnetic fields for aberration correction, phase plate, vortex beam, structured illumination, etc. His research interests also involve cryogenic electron microscopy, in situ electron microscopy, as well as micro- and nano-fabrication using electron beam lithography and focused ion beam.
