Welcome to the homepage of the Electron Microscopy Unit (BEEM) at Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH).

As the central scientific operating unit of the entire TUHH and other public institutions, BEEM provides devices, methods, and expertise in the field of electron microscopy and microanalysis. We are also happy to undertake external contract work. Our services range from sample preparation to the computer-assisted evaluation of captured image and analysis data.
