0923398ChiarenzelliThis award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).Funds from this grant will support the acquisition of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with a variable temperature sample stage, cathodoluminescence (CL) and energy dispersive spectrometers (EDS). The SEM will support the research and teaching activities at least nine faculty members across the disciplines of geology, biology, and physics at Saint Lawrence University, an undergraduate institution. Two of the PIs are new to the NSF proposal process. The SEM will serve the needs of a broad group of productive scientists for applications in tectonics /geochronology, identification of fossils in marine carbonates, research in neuroscience, and characterization of novel ceramics. Undergraduate student access to an on campus state-of-the-art SEM will facilitate student engagement in modern research methods and better prepare them for careers in numerous high tech industries that rely on high resolution microscopy for materials characterization.

0923398Chiarenzelli 该奖项是根据 2009 年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法 111-5）资助的。该赠款的资金将支持购买配备可变温度样品台、阴极发光 (CL) 和能量色散光谱仪 (EDS) 的扫描电子显微镜 (SEM)。 SEM 将支持本科院校圣劳伦斯大学至少 9 名地质学、生物学和物理学学科教员的研究和教学活动。 其中两名 PI 是 NSF 提案流程的新成员。 SEM 将满足大量富有成效的科学家在构造学/地质年代学、海洋碳酸盐化石识别、神经科学研究和新型陶瓷表征方面的应用需求。 本科生在校园内使用最先进的 SEM 将促进学生参与现代研究方法，并为他们在依赖高分辨率显微镜进行材料表征的众多高科技行业的职业生涯做好更好的准备。
