Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope |
The lab houses an FEI Quanta 450 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray (EDAX) detector for elemental analysis, a cooling and heating stage for in-situ testing from -20°C to 1500°C, and a micro tensile stage for mechanical testing. LTU students, faculty, and researchers from partner institutions have been using this equipment for a variety of courses and projects.
