| Category of Aerospace Test | Materials Testing | |
| Sub-category of Aerospace Test | Aerospace Materials | |
| Year of Establisment | 2009 | |
| Test Applications | Characterization of Nano structured coatings and Nano Materials. The facility is an ideal tool to characterize nanomaterials. It has a resolution of 1.0 nm and hence most of the work carried out in the area of nanomaterials can be characterized using FESEM. |
|
| Test Special Features | Resolution – 1.0 nm at 20 KV Nano-powders, Nano-coatings, etc. Sample preparation not required VP mode for non-conducting samples EDAX - Down to B EBSD for crystallographic orientation Sample size 2 mm to 4 inches X-ray mapping UHV Compatible – Fast Recording |
|
| Other Test Information | The FESEM is commissioned in newly constructed building (area 5000 ft2), which has been named as “Nano-materials Research Laboratory”. This building also houses other state-of-art instruments for the characterization of nano-materials, including a 10,000 class clean room along with lithography. Material Science Division - MSD |
