Instrumentation:

CAMECA SX100 Electron Probe Microanalyzer

Fully automated instrument used for nondestructive, in-situ, micro-scale elemental characterization. It is generally equipped with five vertical crystal spectrometers (WDS) and an energy dispersive analyzer (EDS), operating via proprietary Windows-based Peak Sight software or updated with third-party software like Probe for EPMA.

JEOL JSM-7800F Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope

Ultra-high-resolution, Schottky field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) designed for advanced nano-characterization, combining in-lens technology with a super hybrid lens to achieve 0.8 nm resolution. It is utilized for high-resolution imaging, elemental analysis (EDS/WDS), and crystallographic analysis (EBSD) of materials, magnetic samples, and non-conductive specimens, even at very low voltages (down to 10 V).
