Can be taken alone or concurrently with lab course MSNE 582. Previous experience with electron microscopes is recommended.
Topics include modern instrumentation and hardware, electron diffraction, imaging modes, tomography, and spectroscopy (energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), electron-energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), cathodoluminescence (CL)). This course covers the theory and applications of electron microscopy techniques with an emphasis on transmission and scanning transmission electron microscopy (TEM, STEM). Undergraduates planning to stay at Rice for graduate school should take MSNE 537. This course is required for the BS MSNE degree (MSNE 437) but optional for other degrees. The lab experiments concern the structure and constitution of materials as revealed by X-ray scattering and electron diffraction methods.
The course is designed to complement the lectures in MSNE/PHYS 435/535, which must be taken concurrently or previously. MSNE/PHYS 437/537 Crystallography and Diffraction Lab It may also be appropriate for students in CHEM, CENG, PHYS, GEOL, etc. This course is required for all MSNE undergraduates (MSNE 435) and graduate students (MSNE 535). The course is designed to introduce diffraction techniques for the study of crystalline materials. MSNE/PHYS 435/535 Crystallography and Diffraction
