Advanced
Materials Lab
Location: 2170 Gleason
Phone: 585-475-5604
Facilitator: Surendra Gupta
Description/Projects:
The lab houses equipment for advanced characterization and preparation
of engineered materials as well as space for meeting and learning.
Students learn hands-on material characterization techniques of x-ray
diffraction, scanning probe microscopy, optical microscopy, and specimen
preparation techniques. Lab equipment includes a weighing balance, high speed mixer-mill,
low-speed precision saw, and semi-automatic pellet press which are used
to prepare materials other equipment such as scanning probe microscopy, x-ray diffraction, quantitative
microscopy, digital imaging, and hardness testing mechanical polishing
equipment is used for the characterization of the materials.
People involved:
Professor Gupta is in charge of the Advanced Materials Lab. Graduate students
and faculty from many departments use the lab for their projects.
Other departments/agencies:
The lab serves students and faculty from the departments of mechanical
engineering, microelectronic engineering, physics, chemistry, materials
science, and printing as well as the area industry.
