Description
The primary purpose of the electron microprobe is to generate quantitative and qualitative chemical analyses of any material that is stable under the electron beam and under high vacuum. Such materials include minerals, glasses, ceramics, and metals/alloys.
The EPMA Lab is registered in the MERIL project database – Mapping of the European Research Infrastructures Landscape. MERIL makes an inventory of research infrastructures of excellence, with supranational relevance, at European level, in all scientific domains.
