The goal of this course is to provide hands-on training for those interested in using the electron microprobe and to familiarize the operator with the basic principles of X-ray microanalysis. By the end of the course, the student should be able to operate the electron microprobe efficiently and independently. Enrollment is limited to 8 students per semester.
Download the syllabus. Here are some materials involved with the class, including some past labs and exams.
