  8. Introduction to the CMSE Shared Experimental Facilities Goals for Today’s Session: • Make Participants aware of the range of Experimental Facilities available in CMSE • Introduce the Staff • Briefly comment on the capabilities of the major items of equipment • Provide information to help researchers select appropriate tools for their investigations

  9. Introduction to the CMSE Shared Experimental Facilities Goals for Today’s Session: • Make Participants aware of the range of Experimental Facilities available in CMSE • Introduce the Staff • Briefly comment on the capabilities of the major items of equipment • Provide information to help researchers select appropriate tools for their investigations • Each staff member will be offering one (or more) other activities later during IAP to give more details about specific instruments or techniques.

  10. Who are we?

  11. Who are we? The Center for Materials Science and Engineering is funded by the National Science Foundation as a Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC).

  12. Who are we? Part of the mission of CMSE is to provide access to and support for advanced experimental facilities.

  13. Who are we? Part of the mission of CMSE is to provide access to and support for advanced experimental facilities. Support includes some capital equipment funds, and a small contribution towards the operating costs.
