 Demo Description <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n\n\n\n

Processing 3D Electron Diffraction Data with PETS2<\/strong>
This demo introduces the complete workflow for processing 3D electron diffraction data using PETS2. It covers all basic steps, with a particular focus on determining lattice parameters, correcting geometric distortions, and preparing data for dynamical refinement.<\/p>\n

Automated 3D-ED Data Acquisition with EPU-D<\/strong>
EPU-D is a software tool for acquiring electron diffraction data on Thermo Fisher electron microscopes, integrating microscope and camera control into a single, user-friendly interface. In this demo, we will learn how the software operates, how to set up EPU-D presets, how to optimize microscope and specimen conditions, and how to perform basic alignment and data acquisition for 3D-ED (MicroED) experiments.<\/p>\n

3D-ED Data Collection and Processing with XtaLAB Synergy-ED and CrysAlisPro<\/strong>
The XtaLAB Synergy-ED is a dedicated electron diffractometer for 3D-ED\/MicroED developed by Rigaku and JEOL, with CrysAlisPro as its integrated crystallographic software suite. This demo will cover the full pipeline from instrument control and automated data collection to on- and off-line processing, structure solution, and (dynamical) refinement, using a remote-connected Synergy-ED and example data from Synergy-EDs and general TEMs.<\/p>\n

Automated MicroED Workflows with Gatan Latitude-D<\/strong>
Latitude-D is Gatan\u2019s solution for automated continuous-rotation MicroED data acquisition. In this demo, we will show how the software supports the full workflow, from interactive crystal selection and setup of acquisition parameters to real-time monitoring and session management, including low-dose strategies, flexible detector modes, and efficient high-resolution data collection.<\/p>\n

4D-STEM Tomography and Precession Electron Diffraction with Tescan TENSOR<\/strong>
Tescan TENSOR is a multimodal analytical STEM optimized for electron diffraction, including precession-assisted electron diffraction tomography (PEDT) and 4D-STEM mapping. This demo will present automated acquisition of tomographic 4D-STEM data with built-in fast beam precession, precise crystal tracking, and subsequent analysis for determining crystal parameters and investigating multiple crystal domains.<\/p>\n

Automating 3D Electron Diffraction with Instamatic<\/strong>
Instamatic is an interoperable Python-based program for automating 3D electron diffraction experiments, supporting routines such as RED, cRED, FastADT, and their serial variants. This session will introduce the software structure and demonstrate the setup, execution, and troubleshooting of selected automated data-collection routines.<\/p>\n

TEM Automation and Fast-ADT with Gatan Microscopy Suite<\/strong>
Gatan Microscopy Suite provides extensive control of microscopes and Gatan cameras and supports automation via Digital Micrograph scripting. This demo will show how to create simple scripts for routine TEM automation and will conclude with an advanced example illustrating Fast-ADT data collection using a sequential plus precession-based 3D-ED workflow.<\/p>\n

Automated Diffraction Data Collection with SerialEM<\/strong>
SerialEM is a free, widely used tool for automated TEM data acquisition, compatible with most microscope platforms and detectors. This demo will focus on the use of SerialEM for diffraction imaging and batch acquisition, highlighting the technical aspects of setting up and running automated diffraction experiments.<\/p>\n

Continuous-Rotation Electron Diffraction via TEM Scripting<\/strong>
This demo presents a simple solution for continuous-rotation electron diffraction based on the GoToWithSpeed function available on many Thermo Fisher microscopes. Using the TEMScripting library embedded in a JavaScript graphical interface, we will demonstrate automated ED data collection with fast cameras, illustrating the complete workflow from setup to acquisition.

<\/p>\n

3D Electron diffraction data processing with XDS and XDSGUI. <\/b><\/p>\n

This demonstration introduces the complete workflow for processing three-dimensional electron diffraction (3D-ED) data using XDS, including unit-cell determination, examination of reflection profiles, scaling, space-group determination, and preparation of the data for structure refinement with SHELXL or within the CCP4 suite. Although all required programs can be installed and run locally, we demonstrate the use of a DECTRIS cloud electron diffraction container, in which the necessary software is pre-installed. Once the data have been uploaded, the entire processing workflow can be executed conveniently in the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Coffee breaks will be served in building 05.13 outside the seminar room where the school is being held. During lunch breaks we will walk from the ER-C building to the cafeteria (ca. 10 minutes) together and will take you along the picturesque winter lake. Be sure to bring a warm jacket to fully enjoy the beauty of the German winter. The cafeteria offers a wide variety of dishes, so you should be able to find something to suit your taste. We will provide lunch tickets which you need to presented at the cash register. A separate room will be reserved at the cafeteria so that we can all sit together. Additionally, coffee and beverages will be provided there.<\/p>\n

On Monday evening, March 2nd, we will additionally serve some fingerfood during our welcome reception. <\/p>\n

On Thursday evening, March 5th, we will have the opportunity to enjoy burgers at the Timberjacks Restaurant in D\u00fcren (https:\/\/www.timberjacks.com) together. The restaurant is within walking distance of the B&B hotel, so feel free to extend your evening as you wish. Just please remember to be on time for the bus transfer Friday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
