Scientists and Microscope (IMAGE) Helmholtz Association Caption Professor Urban and his staff discuss the atomic structure of an oxide layer of nanoelectronics which is revealed in an electron microscope image. The Ernst Ruska-Centre in Jülich is a joint research platform of excellence operated by Forschungszentrum Juelich and RWTH Aachen University. As a national user center, it provides researchers from science and industry with access to the most powerful electron microscopes currently available. A profound understanding of atomic causes of material properties will provide the basis to tailor materials to specific problems.
