The Nanoscale imaging and Surface Analysis Lab offers a wide array of optical and electron imaging techniques that can provide resolution from sub-nanometer to millimeter scale:
Nanometer Scale Imaging
- ~1 nm – 100 nm: JEOL JEM 2800 STEM
- ~20 nm – 100 μm: Helios Nanolab 650, Quanta 600F SEM and FEI TENEO SEM
Micron Scale Imaging
- < 10 μm: Helios Nanolab 650 and Quanta 650F SEM
- > 10 μm: Keyence VHX-5000 Optical Microscope
3D Topographic Imaging
- < 50 μm field of view: Bruker Icon AFM (<5 μm height feature)
- > 50 μm field of view: Keyence VHX-5000 Optical Microscope
3D Tomographic Imaging
- 5 μm X 5 μm area with 10 nm thin sections: Helios Nanolab 650
- Sub 1 nm features: STEM imaging tomography on JEOL JEM 2800
- Sub 5 nm resolution: STEM/EDS tomography for 3D elemental mapping on JEOL JEM 2800
