QEM - Quantitative Electron Microscopy - is an international event dedicated to

advanced techniques and quantitative measurements in Transmission Electron

Microscopy. It covers theoretical and practical aspects of most of the investigation

techniques available in electron microscopy together with their recent

developments: conventional and scanning high-resolution imaging, holography,

tomography, quantitative electron diffraction, energy loss spectroscopy, and energy

dispersive X-ray analysis, environmental and in-situ TEM. Instrumental aspects

dealing with electron guns, correctors, and detection devices are also studied.

Each aspect is covered through lectures, "pen and paper" works, practical sessions

on microscopes, and computer lab sessions. Round tables are also organized as

lively debates in order to optimize the interaction of participants with the worldwide

experts contributing to the school.

As only advanced techniques and measurements are covered it is assumed that

attendees already know the rudiments of electron microscopy.
