We are pleased to announce the awarding of the NIH R15 supplemental grant for our
research which aims to:
A Zeiss Crossbeam 550L focused ion beam - scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM) has been ordered by the WVU SRF. The brand new system will be housed in the Electron Microscopy Facilities at the Engineering Science Building. The order follows a thorough evaluation process by a technical committee composed of representative faculty and researchers at WVU. Various candidate systems from renowned manufacturers were evaluated and the Zeiss system was determined to be the most suitable. Given manufacturing lead times and special site requirements, the new FIB-SEM is expected to be available to researchers by Summer 2025. It will find widespread applications in metallurgy, ceramics, composites, polymers, geology, arts, biology, pharmaceuticals, forensics, and other disciplines.
For the first time ever, LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) technology has been introduced to a microscope. Salient features include:
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is a nanometer level surface-sensitive quantitative spectroscopic technique based on the photoelectric effect that can identify the elemental composition, their chemical states, and density of the electronic states in materials. At the WVU Shared Facilities, a PHI VersaProbeTM XPS system is available and heavily utilized by researchers across the campus. In this 2-hour Webinar, I will,

I am Maria TorresArango, Ph.D. student in Materials Science and Engineering. I am interested in creating solutions for sustainability and smart living. My research focuses on nano materials for energy harvesting and recovery, solar cell devices, and thermo-electric materials. I use non-toxic and water-compatible materials to ensure the highest levels of safety from the laboratory scale, to the processing stage, to the user, to the environment when the device is disposed of or recycled. I consider research to be of paramount importance. In industry or academia, research is that common place where fundamentals meet applications for actual solutions to engineering problems, and I am excited to be part of it.
