The objective of my research is establishing theory and methodology of low dose electron holography for the atomic resolution tomography of soft materials. In the late 1950s Richard Feynman pointed out that ‘It would be very easy to make an analysis of any complicated chemical substance; all one would have to do would be to look at it and see where the atoms are.’ In principle, the latest generation aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopes can achieve this goal but for a variety of reasons one is still far away from a reliable method that would meet Feynman’s challenge of extracting the three-dimensional (3D) position of all the atoms in an object, to understand its physical and chemical properties. A most noticeable bottleneck is the large accumulated electron dose required to produce tilt series of atomic resolution images, because electron dose rates are commonly chosen large (104–105 eÅ 2 s -1) to achieve a needed resolution around 1 Å and single atom sensitivity. Any such single image can exhibit uncontrolled electron beam-induced surfaces alterations or even bulk modifications, in particular if particles are small or for the organic materials such as protein or molecules. For biological sample, protein, the 3D structure are usually reconstructed from images recorded at the cryo-mode to slow down the electron radiation damage. The 3D structure of bacteriophage T4 was reconstructed using the cryo- electron microscopy in 2005,(V.A.Kostyuchenko et al. Nature Struct. Mol. Biol.12,810–813(2005)). But drawbacks of cryo-microscopy is that at the low temperature , the shape of the protein will be deformed. And the proteins are required exists high symmetry.
In the academic development, to address Feynman’s dream, I have devoted myself in the development of the technology and theory of low-dose electron holography targeting for recovering 3D atomic structure and shape of soft materials like protein, RNA/ DNA, single molecule etc. at room temperature without suffering the radiation damage from electron beam. The shape of the protein and DNA/ RNA will be preserved.
In 2012 we start having the first paper related to reconstruction of 3D atomic structure based on big- bang theory published in NATURE. Later in 2016, we published a general theory for atomic resolution tomography for nano-crystalline material in NATURE communication. A series of papers along this trend will appear in the NATURE or its sub-journals toward understand the 3D shape at atomic resolution for the soft materials in clouding protein, single molecule, DNA/ RNA etc.
B. Industrial Technology:
Established a “Energy Saving Smart Window and Transparent Display” company 2006-present) Established a “Electron Optics Instrumentation Company” for Tabletop electron microscope (2012-present)
I started up high-end technological companies with my graduate students in 2006 for energy saving smart window and 2012 for tabletop electron microscope. One end students can develop their own career and set up strong industrial foundation in Taiwan, on the other hand, the new innovated company can reward their profit back to university laboratory to compensate the insufficient fund from government。
At this moment, electronchromics smart window company targeting for the energy saving has been well developed and has been profitable now. We are setting up mass manufacture production lines in HangZhou, China. This team is a nice model for industrialization of nanotechnology for energy saving. Beside this case, an electron optics team got the support from our MOST projects from 2010, and established as the first electron microscope manufacture company in Taiwan under the support of Industrial Technology Investment Company (ITIC) in 2012. This company has several important patents and unique technologies which lead to receive many awards. Recently, the world largest semiconductor fabrication company TSMC has given their order to our electron microscope company which proves a positive certificate for the established technology。In the near future, these two companies will feedback their profit back to the laboratory to establish the world class academic research institute in materials science and scientific instrument in Taiwan.
