Dear current and potential users of UCI materials characterization facilities:
To take full advantage of the FEI Quanta 3D FEG SEM equipped with Oxford Instrument EDS/EBSD and the related specimen preparation facility, you are invited to attend the FEI-Oxford Instruments Joint Symposium on FEI Quanta 3D FEG Dualbeam, Oxford EDS/EBSD and related Specimen Preparation Techniques. Application engineers from both FEI and Oxford instruments are invited to give lectures and demos on principle, applications and operations of this instrument and related attachments. Dr. Scott Walck is invited to talk about specimen preparation techniques. Details are listed below. It is free to attend the lectures and demos of this symposium. Because of limited time and space, the number of people for demos could be limited. First come, first served. Please sign up in the Google spreadsheet as indicated below.
