A grant has been awarded to Washington University under the direction of Dr. Tyrone Daulton to acquire an advanced analytical field emission scanning electron with high-spatial resolution electron beam lithography capabilities. The instrument will be part of a Center for Materials Innovation and will be used by researchers in biology, chemistry, geology, and materials science. The instrument will benefit eight proposed research activities, including developments of nanostructured devices, investigations of heavy metal remediation, studies of nanostructure of bone, and controlled growth of nanostructured materials using copolymers. The instrument will be used in student research, with specific outreach efforts to include underrepresented groups in science and mentor them for future careers as science professionals.

在Tyrone Daulton博士的指导下，华盛顿大学获得了一项赠款，用于获得具有高空间分辨率电子束光刻能力的先进分析场发射扫描电子。该仪器将是材料创新中心的一部分，将由生物、化学、地质和材料科学的研究人员使用。该仪器将有利于八项拟议的研究活动，包括纳米结构设备的开发、重金属修复的研究、骨的纳米结构研究以及使用共聚物控制纳米结构材料的生长。该工具将用于学生研究，通过具体的推广努力，将科学中代表性不足的群体包括在内，并指导他们未来作为科学专业人员的职业生涯。
