BOMI 318 – Electron Microscopy: Theory and Practice. An exploration of the physical nature of electron microscopy with emphasis on the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Students investigate the influence of electron beam parameters on imaging and how to correct imaging problems to optimize analysis. Topics covered include sample selection, sputter coating, cryo-preparation, and elemental analysis by energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). Students gain extensive, hands-on experience using the SEM. Lecture and laboratory. Additional lab time required outside of scheduled lab. Prerequisites: any two science courses that count towards a science major or permission of instructor. F. (Group II) Also listed as GEOL 318 and ZOOL 318. Questions? Email: lmtuhela@owu.edu (instructor) or eeblackb@owu.edu (SEM Liaison). Register for BOMI 318 offered Fall 2022!
