SEM Short Course

The NISP Lab at NanoCenter will be offering a short course in Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) during this summer break (2013) using our state-of-the-art Hitachi SU-70 High Resolution Analytical SEM.

The short course provides an introduction to the SEM for those with little or no prior experience. This course covers basic principles and knowledge of the scanning electron microscope including energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). In addition to lectures, there will be an emphasis on hands-on laboratory exercises that focus on instrument operation and practical applications. Students have the opportunity to study their own samples, or test samples provided by the Lab. At the end of the course, students with no prior experience are able to align a SEM, obtain secondary and backscattering electron images, and perform EDS analysis.
