This award from the Major Research Instrumentation program to the University of Arkansas is for the acquisition of a field emission environmental scanning electron microscope. The system is expected to provide a spatial resolution of two nanometer at thirty kilovolt accelerating voltage and at elevated chamber pressure up to ten Torr. This allows imaging of biological or other wet samples without the requirement of conducting coating. The system will be equipped with hot/cold stages and micromanipulators. It includes additional features such as computerized image processing with capability to capture videos of sample evolution. Faculty and students from universities in Arkansas with underrepresented minorities will have remote access to the instrument. The instrument will be used by twenty faculty members along with students and postdocs. The instrument will also support the research and training activities of the Arkansas-Oklahoma Center of Instrumentation and Science for Planetary Surfaces, the Center for Advanced Technology and the MRSEC.

这个奖项从主要研究仪器计划的阿肯色州大学是收购场发射环境扫描电子显微镜。该系统预计将提供一个空间分辨率为2纳米在30千伏的加速电压和在升高的腔室压力高达10托。这允许在不需要导电涂层的情况下对生物或其他湿样品进行成像。该系统将配备热/冷载物台和显微操作器。它还包括其他功能，如计算机图像处理，能够捕获样品演变的视频。来自阿肯色州少数民族代表不足的大学的教师和学生将可以远程访问该仪器。该仪器将由20名教师沿着学生和博士后使用。该仪器还将支持阿肯色州-俄克拉荷马州行星表面仪器和科学中心、先进技术中心和MRSEC的研究和培训活动。 这个奖项从主要研究仪器计划的阿肯色州大学是收购场发射环境扫描电子显微镜。该系统预计将提供一个空间分辨率为2纳米在30千伏的加速电压和在升高的腔室压力高达10托。这允许在不需要导电涂层的情况下对生物或其他湿样品进行成像。该系统将配备热/冷载物台和显微操作器。它还包括其他功能，如计算机图像处理，能够捕获样品演变的视频。来自阿肯色州少数民族代表不足的大学的教师和学生将可以远程访问该仪器。该仪器将由20名教师沿着学生和博士后使用。该仪器还将支持阿肯色州-俄克拉荷马州行星表面仪器和科学中心、先进技术中心和MRSEC的研究和培训活动。
