Electron Microscopy Lab

Electron Microscopy Lab is equipped with state-of-the-art advanced analytical instrumentation for microstructure analysis and also complete sample preparation facilities. It is our objective to provide instructional and research services and expertise in materials characterization and to train interested researchers, including students to use the facilities and instrumentation. In addition, users are encouraged to establish research projects through collaboration with in-house experts.
