We are pleased to offer the popular 3-week hands-on short course, Scanning Electron Microscopy:

Lectures:
When: Tuesdays Dec 3, 10, 17
Time: 11am – noon
Where: SMBB Sorenson USTAR building, second floor (large conference room or auditorium, depending on attendance)
Lab: sessions each week to be scheduled when the student roster is established
Cost: $120. If a company is paying for the registration fee, the price is $300.

You can elect to be trained on either the Quanta ESEM (Hi-vac, low-vac modes) or the Hitachi S4800 (Hi-vac, hi-res). After this training we expect you will be proficient enough to use the instrument by yourself following one more one-on-one session with your own samples.

This training or the equivalent (+ 50 hrs stick time) is required as a pre-requisite for learning to use the dual-beam Focused Ion Beam (FIB/SEM) instrument.
