AES uses an electron beam to excite a sample, and then measures the energies of secondary electrons
emitted. Elemental composition information (and some chemical information) is obtained from the top
few atomic layers. AES detects all elements except H and He and is most effective on electrically
conductive surfaces. Elemental maps can be constructed from the sample to reveal the spatial
distribution of elements on the surface. An attached ion gun allows one to obtain elemental depth profiles
from the sample.

X-Ray diffraction is a technique that measures the intensity of x-rays diffracted by a sample material to
gain information from that material. XRD can determine the crystal structure and lattice parameters of
crystalline materials. Single crystals can be oriented for cutting using XRD. Texture and orientation of
thin films can also be examined. In some cases, residual stress and degree of crystallinity can be
obtained. The JCPDS database can be used for phase identification of unknown samples.

SIMS (Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry) is an analytical technique that is used to characterize the
surface and near surface (~30mkm) region of materials. It is capable of detecting practically all elements,
including hydrogen (only the noble gases are difficult to measure) with detection limits in ppm range for
most elements and ppb range for some. There are several modes of SIMS instrument operation:
1. Static SIMS – allows molecular as well as elemental characterization of the first top monolayer.
2. Dynamic SIMS – provides for the investigation of bulk composition or the depth distribution of the
trace elements.
3. Ion imaging – allows lateral imaging and, if combined with depth profiling, -3D compositional
reconstruction for heterogeneous samples.
4. Isotope ratio measurement – another unique technique of SIMS making it possible to measure
isotope ratio with precision of 0.1% and better.
SIMS can be applied to any type of material (insulators, semiconductors, metals, and organic molecules)
that can stay under vacuum.

Depth profiling
Film thickness
Stoichiometry
H, He, and Cs sources
Accepts planar solids from ~2 x 2 mm to 25 x 25 mm with no more than 15 mm
Hydrogen Forward Scattering Spectroscopy
RBS analysis is performed by bombarding a sample target with a mono energetic beam of high-energy
particles, typically helium, with an energy of a few MeV. Some of the incident atoms scatter backwards
from heavier atoms in the near surface region of the target material, and are detected with a solid-state
detector that measures their energy. The energy of a backscattered particle is related to the depth and
mass of the target atom, while the number of backscattered particles detected from any given element is
proportional to the concentration. A depth profile of the upper 1-2 m of the sample is possible. The
depth resolution is 2-30 nm. The lateral resolution is 1 mm and the maximum depth is ~2 m (20 m
with H+). The primary applications of RBS are the quantitative composition depth profiling of thin film
structures. RBS is also used to accurately determine the thickness of thin films if the density of the film is
known. Detection limits are 1-10 atomic % for low atomic number elements and 0-100 ppm for high
atomic number elements. All elements except H and he may be detected.

LEICA EM UC7/FC7 Ultramicrotomy: The high quality microtome for precise room temperature
and cryo sectioning.
The Leica EM UC7 prepares excellent quality semi- and ultra-thin sections, as well as the perfectly smooth
surfaces required for LM, TEM, SEM, and AFM examination for biological samples, polymer samples, soft
materials and composites. The precision mechanics, ergonomic design, and intuitive layout of the touch
screen control unit make the Leica EM UC7 ideal for the highest quality specimen preparation by getting
tens nanometers thickness.
The Leica EM FC7 provides three different cryo-modes: Standard; High gas flow – increased LN2 gas
flow reduces ice contamination below -140°C and Wet sectioning - to set a temperature difference of up
to 130°C between knife (-40°C) and specimen (-170°C), which is useful for, e.g., DMSO applications.

Renishaw RM 1000B Micro-Raman Spectrometer


Imaging CCD Detector
Ar-514nm Excitation Unit
Raman spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique to study vibrational, rotational, and other low-frequency
modes. It relies on inelastic scattering, or Raman scattering of monochromatic light, usually from a laser
in the visible, near infrared, or near ultraviolet range. The laser light interacts with phonons or other
excitations in the system, resulting in the energy of the laser photons being shifted up or down. The shift
in energy gives information about the phonon modes in the system. Raman spectroscopy offers several
advantages for microscopic analysis. Since it is a scattering technique, specimens do not need to be fixed
or sectioned. Raman spectra can be collected from a very small volume (< 1 µm in diameter); these
spectra allow the identification of species present in that volume. Water does not interfere very strongly.
Thus, Raman spectroscopy is suitable for the microscopic examination of minerals, materials such as
polymers and ceramics, cells and proteins.
