Analytical Facilities

Electron Microprobe Analyzer (EPMA)

ASU's Knowledge Enterprise hosts the JEOL JXA-8530F Hyperprobe, a field emission electron microprobe. It has a nominal imaging resolution of 3 nm with six spectrometers for non-destructive X-ray microanalysis and imaging of solid samples up to 10 cm in size. Click here for further information regarding the EPMA.
