This course is designed for individuals who use scanning electron microscopy and x-ray microanalysis in academic, governmental, or industrial laboratories: engineers, technicians, physical and biological scientists, clinicians, geologists, forensic scientists and technical managers. Through an integrated series of lectures and laboratory sessions, it will provide a working knowledge of the principles of these two related techniques as well as an introduction to variable-pressure (environmental) and low-voltage SEM. Special optional sessions will be conducted for students interested specifically in specialized imaging techniques, x-ray analysis of difficult specimens, organic materials, electronic materials, fracture/failure analysis, and forensic analysis. Students are encouraged to bring their own specimens to the course.
