Electron Microprobe Lab Research

The Earth and Planetary Sciences Electron Microprobe Facility yields precise quantitative chemical information at the micron scale that is critical for a broad variety of disciplines. It provides an excellent opportunity for students to collect their own data on high level analytical equipment and to learn how to interpret that data using sound statistical and analytical methods.

Please consider making a donation as these experiences reinforce the fundamentals students learn in the classroom through real-world applications. Gifts will be used to provide greater opportunities for graduate and undergraduate student use of the electron microprobe.
