Scanning Electron Microscopy & Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer

Advanced Nanoscale Material Analysis with SEM-EDS 

METS Lab now offers cutting-edge material analysis through Scanning Electron Microscopy & Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (SEM-EDS). Our expert team provides insightful interpretation and complimentary access across all regions to support your critical projects, analyses, and investigations. 

SEM utilizes a focused electron beam to probe sample surfaces at the nanoscale, generating high-resolution, high-magnification images. This reveals crucial information about a specimen’s Topography, Morphology, Composition, and Crystallographic nature. With magnifications ranging from 20X to approximately 30,000X and a spatial resolution of 50-100 nm, SEM uncovers external morphology, crystalline structures, multi-layer coatings, orientation, and minute defects. 

Complementing SEM, EDS analyzes characteristic X-rays to provide qualitative and quantitative elemental composition data for specific points and areas of interest on a sample. 

Unlock Insights Across Industries: Our SEM-EDS capabilities provide critical information for: 

  • Metallurgy: Failure analysis, deposit/scale analysis, corrosion product identification, fractography, micro/nano defect detection. 
  • Soil & Rock Analysis: Concrete mix composition, mineral identification, granular material morphology, concrete microanalysis, particle/grain size, soil quality. 
  • Quality Control: Material manufacturing, welding engineering, fabrication, polymer assembly, microchip inspection, jewelry purity, paint/fiber analysis, electronics, pharmaceuticals, forensic science, environmental particles, air pollution analysis, wear particle identification, food packaging QC, oil sediment analysis. 
  • Innovation & Product Development: Metal additive manufacturing, composite/nanomaterial/battery development, structural biology, recycling, microorganism morphology.
