Our Goal
Our TEM service is equipped with a TEM/STEM (JEOL 2100F) operating at 200KV with a Field Emission Gun, and a point resolution of 0.19 nm. EDX detector (X-Max80 by Oxford Instruments) is coupled to the TEM, which allows the possibility of semi-quantitative chemical analysis. By using the STEM unit, Z-contrast images as well as the chemical characterization of areas of few nanometers can be done.
A sample preparation laboratory equipped with an ultrasound bath and basic lab material for powder samples is available.
