PFIB Lab

The PFIB (Plasma Focused ion Beam) lab is meant as a national infrastructure for nanoscience and nanotechnology research. The substantial characterization capabilities make this instrument unique. The dual beam is equipped with several detectors such as a retractable backscattered electron detector, retractable S(T)EM detector, EDS, EBSD, and ToF-SIMS. This combination can be used for a deep understanding of the microstructure, crystallographic orientations, chemical composition, and surface/sub-surface topography of different types of materials.

PFIB lab is part of the SmartH national infrastructure
