Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) Open House
Date: Tuesday, October 29, 2024, 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM
The Quantum Nano Fabrication and Characterization Facility (QNFCF) and Transformative Quantum Technologies (TQT) will be hosting a Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) Open House on Tuesday, October 29, 9:00 am - 3:00 pm at QNC 0101 to celebrate one year since the launch of the QNFCF's advanced S/TEM capabilities.
The morning will start with a series of engaging presentations covering the latest advancements in TEM technology, sample preparation techniques, and data analysis methods. Speakers will include QNFCF staff and expert engineers from JEOL and Gatan. Following the talks, there will be opportunities to tour our metrology facility to explore advanced instrumentation and learn about the processes involved in sample preparation and characterization.
In the afternoon, participants will have opportunities to attend live TEM sessions hosted by Nicki Shaw and JEOL engineer Dr. Patrick Phillips. Please register for the event below.
Light refreshments and lunch will be provided.
