Abstract

The development of the in-situ TEM techniques corresponds to the progress in nano-scale research and it cannot be isolated with the development of electron microscopy. In the 1931, the first transmission electron microscope in the world was invented by Ruska and Knoll, and the detectable spatial resolution of science has made great progress. Until now, the most advanced TEM can easily achieve a spatial resolution below 0.5 Å, which was beyond imagination 100 years ago. Meanwhile, the relevant in-situ experiments have been put forward. The in-situ magnetic technique is one of the core in-situ TEM techniques. Since the 1960s, magnetism in-situ TEM has realized numerous observations of magnetic configurations, magnetization dynamics and magnetic properties. In the progress of magnetism, the magnetism in-situ TEM plays an essential role. This chapter will briefly introduce the history, principle and latest progress in the technologies of magnetism in-situ TEM.
