Catalysis plays a key role for the sustainable development of our society. The characterization of morphology, chemical composition, surface, and internal structure of catalysts is of great importance for the synthesis of materials of high selectivity, high conversion rate, with long cycle times favored for their reduced environmental impact. Modern electron microscopy with its arsenal of imaging and spectroscopic techniques gives access to the collective and individual properties of such materials
