Atomic force microscope and Raman spectroscopy are shown here. Two of our materials characterization techniques in CNI.
The
CNI Shared Lab Facilities
are open to student and faculty researchers, as well as those from government, start-ups, and industry. The
Clean Room
offers a comprehensive set of tools for microfabrication and nanofabrication. The
Materials Characterization Laboratory
and the
Electron Microscopy Laboratory
offer state-of-the-art instruments for chemical and structural characterization of materials.
