Shared Facilities :: Powder Synthesis and Characterization

Quasi-elastic light scattering apparatus @ Stanford/ IBM ARC/ UC Davis/ UC Berkeley

| Surface Preparation/ Characterization | Thin Film Fabrication and Characterization | Polymer Synthesis/ Characterization |

A Brookhaven Instruments quasi-elastic light scattering apparatus is available for materials characterization at Stanford.

Integrated Microscopy Facilities @ Cornell University

| Electron Microscopy | Surface Preparation/ Characterization | Thin Film Fabrication and Characterization | Materials Processing/ Preparation | Spectroscopy | Polymer Synthesis/ Characterization | Optical Microscopy | Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy | Image Analysis and Processing | Crystal Growth | Crystallography | Electron Microprobe | Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy | Focused Ion Beam | UHV STEM |

The Integrated Microscopy Facility provides a variety of electron and optical microscopes for imaging small features and for microanalysis of the elemental composition of materials. The facility is operated by three expert managers who have many years of combined experience in advanced microscopy.
Instruments in this facility include:
Leica 440 SEM: 4.5 nm resolution at 30KV. […]

X-Ray Diffraction Facility @ Cornell University

| Polymer Synthesis/ Characterization | Crystallography | X-ray Diffraction | Ceramics |

Offering a number of distinct advantages for materials research, this facility houses a small angle X-Ray scattering system (SAXS), a general area diffraction detection system, 2 powder diffractometers, a back-reflection Laue system, and a high-resolution diffractometer. For most samples, very little sample preparation is needed. All types of materials, including polymers, clays, metals, and ceramics […]

Differential Scanning Calorimeter @ Stanford/ IBM ARC/ UC Davis/ UC Berkeley

| Polymer Synthesis/ Characterization | Thermal/ Mechanical Analysis |

A TA Instruments Q100 differential scanning calorimeter is available for thermal analysis of materials.
