Nine Ways to Understand Your Material—See What Each Reveals

Our state-of-the-art facility offers complete materials analysis from atomic-scale imaging to bulk property measurements. We combine advanced microscopy, spectroscopy, and analytical techniques to provide deep insights into your nanomaterials and thin films.

  • Multi-scale characterization from atomic resolution to bulk properties.
  • Integrated structural, compositional, and functional analysis.
  • Expert interpretation and customized testing protocols.

(What does it look like? Shape, size, arrangement, defects.)

  • Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): High-resolution surface imaging.

  • Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM): Atomic-resolution imaging of internal structure and crystallography.

  • Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM): TEM variant with enhanced Z-contrast imaging.

  • Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM): 3D surface topography and mechanical mapping at the nanoscale.

  • Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM): Atomic-resolution imaging of conductive surfaces.

  • Confocal Microscopy: Optical sectioning and 3D imaging of surfaces or transparent materials.

  • Surface Profiler: Measures surface roughness and step heights (more macro than AFM).

(What is the crystal structure and phase composition?)

  • X-ray Diffraction (XRD): Identifies crystalline phases, lattice parameters, and crystallite size.
  • Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED): Nanoscale crystallographic analysis within a TEM.
  • Raman Spectroscopy: Identifies phases, crystal structure, stress, and defects based on molecular vibrations.

(What is it made of? Elements and their distribution.)

  • Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS/EDX): Elemental identification and mapping (attached to SEM/TEM).
  • X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS): Surface elemental composition and chemical state (top few nm).
  • Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS): Ultra-trace elemental quantification in solutions.
  • X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF): Bulk elemental composition (qualitative/quantitative).
  • Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR): Identifies chemical bonds and functional groups.

(How does it interact with light? What are its electronic properties?)

  • UV-Visible Spectroscopy: Measures absorbance/transmittance; determines band gap, nanoparticle concentration.
  • Photoluminescence Spectroscopy (PL): Studies light emission, recombination processes, defect states.
  • Ellipsometry: Measures film thickness and optical constants (n, k).
  • Resistivity Measurements: Determines electrical conductivity/resistivity.
  • Dielectric Spectroscopy: Measures dielectric constant and loss as a function of frequency.

(How does it behave with temperature? Phase transitions, stability.)

  • Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): Measures weight change vs. temperature (thermal stability, composition).
  • Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC): Measures heat flow vs. temperature (phase transitions, glass transition, crystallization).
  • Differential Thermal Gravimetry (DTG): Derivative of TGA, highlights temperatures of maximum decomposition rate.
  • Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA): Measures dimensional changes vs. temperature (expansion, softening).


(How strong, stiff, or soft is it? How does it flow/deform?)

  • Nanoindentation: Measures hardness and elastic modulus at the nanoscale.
  • Tensile Testing: Measures stress-strain behavior (ultimate strength, elongation, modulus).
  • Rheometry: Studies flow and deformation of liquids, gels, and soft solids (viscosity, viscoelasticity).
  • Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM): Measures magnetic moment vs. applied field (hysteresis loops).
  • Electrochemical Analysis: Includes Cyclic Voltammetry, Impedance Spectroscopy to study redox behavior, catalytic activity, corrosion, and battery/supercapacitor performance.

(Tools for making or preparing nanoscale specimens.)

  • Focused Ion Beam (FIB): Used for site-specific milling, deposition, and TEM sample preparation.
