EMSE-515

Analytical Methods of Materials Science

Fall Semester 2005

This course introduces students to a variety of microcharacterization techniques that are of great importance in materials science and engineering: SPM (scanning probe microscopy, including atomic force microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), FIB (focused ion beam) techniques, SIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry), EPMA (electron probe microanalysis), XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectrometry), and AES (Auger electron spectrometry).
For each technique, lectures explaining the principle and theoretical background will be followed by practical examples from recent materials research and laboratory demonstrations in the Swagelok Center for Surface Analysis of Materials.
