Electron Microscopy Facility

State of the Art Facility

Our multi-user core facility has advanced high resolution transmission electron microscopes (TEM), scanning electron microscopes (SEM) and a Focused Ion Beam (FIB)/SEM microscope. Surface science instrumentation category has time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), ultravioet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), and low energy inverse photoelectron spectroscopy (LEIPS) capabilities with Ar+ and C60 sources. We frequently use Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD), Wavelength Dispersive Spectroscopy (WDS), sample manipulation and surface modification capabilities on our electron microscopes. Our goal is to provide best microscopy and surface analysis technical services to our faculty and industry collaborators.
