Acquisition of the Specimen Preparation Equipment for Transmission Electron Microscopy for Research and Education

0076512约翰森这一奖项是对购买现代样品制备设备的奖励，该设备能够以最小的损伤制备用于透射电子显微镜(TEM)的复杂材料的样品。该设备将提供新的机会，并提高加州理工学院早先在NSF支持下收购的瞬变电磁设施的现有能力。新的样品制备设备将允许可靠和受控的样品制备，并减少电子显微镜中的样品污染。它将有助于研究大块金属玻璃变形的微观机制、复合材料中的界面现象以及各种材料的其他基本性质。该设备目前将广泛用于材料研究，并将在未来十年用于加州理工大学的材料研究。*这一奖项是为了表彰获得一种现代样品制备设备，以便以最小的损伤制备用于透射电子显微镜(TEM)的复杂材料的样品。该设备将提供新的机会，并提高加州理工学院早先在NSF支持下收购的瞬变电磁设施的现有能力。新的样品制备设备将允许可靠和受控的样品制备，并减少电子显微镜中的样品污染。它将有助于研究大块金属玻璃变形的微观机制、复合材料中的界面现象以及各种材料的其他基本性质。该设备目前将广泛用于材料研究，并将在未来十年用于加州理工大学的材料研究。%

0076512JohnsonThis an award is for the acquisition of a modern sample preparation equipment to prepare with minimum damage specimens of complex materials for transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The equipment will provide new opportunities and advance the current capability of the TEM facility at Caltech acquired earlier with NSF support. The new sample preparation equipment will allow reliable and controlled specimen preparation, and the reduction of specimen contamination in the electron microscope. It will facilitate investigations of micromechanisms of deformation in bulk metallic glasses, interfacial phenomena in composites and other fundamental properties of a wide range of materials. The equipment will see heavy use for a broad range of materials investigations currently and for materials research at Caltech over the next decade. ***This an award is for the acquisition of a modern sample preparation equipment to prepare with minimum damage specimens of complex materials for transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
