MC2,
A Campus-Wide Materials Characterization Facility
The Material Characterization Center (MC2)
is a university-wide user facility for the microstructural and microchemical
characterization of materials. The Center offers a wide range of
microscopy (both electron and visible light) and X-ray diffraction
instrumentation, and service to the scientific and engineering community
through education, collaborative research, and technical service.
The Center also provides facilities for the preparation and examination
of many types of thin specimens (foils/films), fine particles, replicas,
metals, ceramics, semi-conductors, and superconductors as well as
biological, biochemical and medical materials using light optical
microscopy (LOM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning
electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).
