The Imaging and Microscopy Group

The Diamond Light Source Imaging and Microscopy Group is a group of beamlines using electrons and X-rays to image samples under different experimental conditions across a diverse range of length scales and time scales. Different contrast mechanisms allow for imaging of sample properties such as elemental composition, density and structure and this ability to extract image sample properties in minute detail lends itself to a wide range of scientific areas from chemistry and catalysis to environmental science, materials science, biology, medicine, and cultural heritage:

The Imaging and Microscopy Group User Meeting 2024

The Imaging and Microscopy Group will be hosting its User Meeting at Diamond Light Source, on Monday 16th and Tuesday 17th of September 2024.

The event will bring together user groups and scientists from the diverse fields across the Imaging and Microscopy facilities at Diamond to foster discussion and collaborations through shared science and technique applications.

The User meeting will:

  • Showcase the recent scientific results and the latest developments across the Imaging and Microscopy beamlines
  • Feature both invited and contributed talks as well as a poster session
  • Provide the Diamond Imaging and Microscopy community with the opportunity to meet, exchange ideas and discuss future directions and requirements for the group
  • Cover the major scientific themes relevant for the User Community, including:
    • Biology & biomaterials
    • Energy Materials
    • Environmental Science
    • Materials science & engineering
