We develop methodologies for the chemical analysis of surfaces and interfaces in materials using XPS, Auger, and TEM. These methodologies are applied to studies of corrosion, segregation, reactivity, and surface functionalization.
Resources
- Angle-resolved Auger / XPS spectrometer, equipped with in-situ fracture devices and a heating stage,
- Transmission electron microscopy.
