Abstract

The rapidly evolving field of electron microscopy touches nearly every aspect of modern life, underpinning impactful materials discoveries in applications such as quantum information science, energy, and medicine. As the field enters a new decade, a paradigm has begun to emerge in which the convergence of advanced instrumentation, robust in-situ platforms, and data-driven experimentation will help researchers distill observations of ever more complex systems into meaningful physical properties and mechanisms. Here we present the findings from the first in a series of workshops gathering together scientists and technologists across academia, government laboratories, and industry, with the goal to develop a critical roadmap for next-generation transmission electron microscopy (NexTEM). We provide a perspective on the present and emerging state-of-the-art, highlighting progress and the crucial developments still needed to realize the materials of tomorrow.
