Senior🎓
Top SchoolPenghan Lu is a Permanent Staff Scientist at Forschungszentrum Jülich and a core member of Germany’s ER-C 2.0 roadmap, bringing 11 years of experience in developing advanced electron microscopy instrumentation and methodologies. His work spans low-dose phase-contrast techniques (holography, ptychography, 4D STEM), characterization of event-driven detectors, cryogenic electron microscopy down to liquid helium temperatures, and tailored micro-/nanofabrication for bespoke hardware. He combines hands-on experimental skill with optical and hardware innovation—designing non-conventional optical setups and custom components to push imaging sensitivity for fragile materials and biological specimens. Trained in materials science with a background in energy and automation, he uniquely blends physical instrumentation expertise with systems-level thinking to enable time-resolved and in situ studies that many groups find challenging.
