Tina Bergh

Tina Bergh is a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Chemical Engineering within the Faculty of Natural Sciences at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). She specializes in electron microscopy characterization and corresponding data analysis, working primarily within the catalysis group and TEM group at NTNU. Her research integrates advanced microscopy techniques with computational analysis to address challenges in materials science and catalysis.

Her educational background includes a doctoral degree from the Department of Physics at NTNU, where she investigated intermetallic phases in aluminum-steel welded interfaces, and a master's degree in Nanotechnology for materials, energy and the environment, also from NTNU.

Bergh's research interests focus on advanced electron microscopy techniques including (Scanning) transmission electron microscopy ((S)TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron diffraction methods (PED, EBSD, 3D ED), 4D-STEM (particularly SPED), and spectroscopy (EDS/EDX, EELS). She applies these to study aluminum alloys and their precipitates, heterogeneous catalysts (especially silver catalysts for methanol-to-formaldehyde conversion), and various nanoparticle systems. She develops open-source Python-based data analysis workflows using hyperspy and pyxem repositories.

Her publication record reveals a strong trajectory in applying scanning precession electron diffraction to characterize aluminum alloy microstructures and catalyst systems, with increasing focus on in situ techniques and computational analysis. Recent work shows progression from fundamental studies of intermetallic phases toward applications in catalysis and multi-material joining technologies.

Bergh actively supervises students and collaborates across disciplines, as evidenced by her extensive co-authorship network. She participates in teaching activities including the course TKP4190 - Fabrication and Applications of Nanomaterials, and presents her work at international conferences such as Microscopy and Microanalysis and International Conference on Aluminium Alloys.

She maintains active involvement in research communities through the TEM group and Catalysis group at NTNU, with recent presentations at workshops including NordTEMhub and European Microscopy Congress. Her work demonstrates strong integration of experimental characterization with computational data analysis methodologies.
