Microscopes, Spectrometers, Surface Analysis, and other equipment

Olympus SZ11 Zoom Stereo Optical Microscope (Clark D-10)
73 mm working distance microscope with 18X—110X total magnification range. This microscope has a 45º binocular observation tube angle and is equipped with a CCD camera and monitor. Frame capture software is also available for the capture of non-RGB images.
Shimadzu UV-3101PC UV/Vis/Near-IR
Spectrophotometer (Clark D-15) 
Wavelength range 190—3200 nm. Samples can be analyzed in transmission, absorption, reflection. Large-sample compartment (12-inch diameter maximum) with integrating sphere for measurement of opaque, translucent, or turbid materials (optical materials, semiconductors, glass, plastics, foods, etc.). 0.3 nm UV-Vis resolution, 1.6 nm near-IR resolution.
X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer
(XPS) (Clark D-7) 
Surface analysis technique for elemental identification and quantification using single-energy x-ray photons. A photoelectron spectrum is created by measuring energies of electrons ejected from a sample.
