| 327-2125-00L | Microscopy Training SEM I - Introduction to SEM  Limited number of participants. Master students will have priority over PhD students. PhD students may still enroll, but will be asked for a fee. (http://www.scopem.ethz.ch/education/MTP.html). Registration form: (Link) | 2 KP | 3P | P. Zeng, A. G. Bittermann, S. Gerstl, L.

| Kurzbeschreibung | Der Einführungskurs in Rasterelektronenmikroskopie (SEM) betont praktisches Lernen. Die Studierenden haben die Möglichkeit an zwei Elektronenmikroskopen ihre eigenen Proben oder Standard-Testproben zu untersuchen, sowie von ScopeM-Wissenschafler vorbereitete Übungen zu lösen. | ||||
| Lernziel | - Set-up, align and operate a SEM successfully and safely. - Accomplish imaging tasks successfully and optimize microscope performances. - Master the operation of a low-vacuum and field-emission SEM and EDX instrument. - Perform sample preparation with corresponding techniques and equipment for imaging and analysis - Acquire techniques in obtaining secondary electron and backscatter electron micrographs - Perform EDX qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis | ||||
| Inhalt | During the course, students learn through lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on sessions how to setup and operate SEM instruments, including low-vacuum and low-voltage applications. This course gives basic skills for students new to SEM. At the end of the course, students with no prior experience are able to align a SEM, to obtain secondary electron (SE) and backscatter electron (BSE) micrographs and to perform energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis. The procedures to better utilize SEM to solve practical problems and to optimize SEM analysis for a wide range of materials will be emphasized. - Discussion of students' sample/interest - Introduction and discussion on Electron Microscopy and instrumentation - Lectures on electron sources, electron lenses and probe formation - Lectures on beam/specimen interaction, image formation, image contrast and imaging modes. - Lectures on sample preparation techniques for EM - Brief description and demonstration of the SEM microscope - Practice on beam/specimen interaction, image formation, image contrast (and image processing) - Student participation on sample preparation techniques - Scanning Electron Microscopy lab exercises: setup and operate the instrument under various imaging modalities - Lecture and demonstrations on X-ray micro-analysis (theory and detection), qualitative and semi-quantitative EDX and point analysis, linescans and spectral mapping - Practice on real-world samples and report results | ||||

| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | No mandatory prerequisites. Please consider the prior attendance to EM Basic lectures (551- 1618-00V; 227-0390-00L; 327-0703-00L) as suggested prerequisite. | ||||
| 327-2129-00L | Analytical Electron Microscopy: EDS | 1 KP | 2P | P. Zeng, L. Grafulha Morales, K. Kunze, A. Sologubenko | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The main goal of this hands-on course is to provide students with fundamental understanding of underlying physical processes, experimental set-up solutions and hands-on practical experience of analytical electron microscopy (AEM) technique for microstructure characterisation, specifically Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) and spectrum imaging (SI) technique. | ||||
| Lernziel | - understanding of physical processes that enable the EDS technique and data evaluation algorithms; - hand-on experience of data acquisition and evaluation routines including o practical understanding of different data acquisition set-ups, o optimization of acquisition parameters for most reliable quantification of the results, o the knowledge of the available and most reliable quantification algorithms and their handling o the knowledge of data evaluation routines and possible handicaps for reliable elemental content distribution analyses and material composition quantification o the effect of the specimen geometry on the data and experimental solutions for minimization of the artefacts | ||||
| Inhalt | This advanced course provides analytical EM techniques to the students with prior EM experience (TEM or SEM). At the end of the course, students will understand the physical processes that enable the EDS technique and data evaluation algorithms and apply the technique for their own research. - Introduction to analytical electron microscopy: theory and instrumentation. - Lectures on EDS, WDS - Practical on EDS-SEM: data acquisition and analysis. - Practical on EDS-TEM: data acquisition and analysis. The hand-on trainings are to be carried-out on a real-life specimen, provided by lecturers and / by students. | ||||
