The Molecular Analysis Facility (MAF) is a state-of-the-art characterization facility that provides high-end characterization tools to all users in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. The MAF Characterization Workshop, Aug. 22-23, includes lectures in the morning and instrument ‘hands-on’ demonstrations in the afternoon. Due to the capacity of our lab space, the registration number for the demos part of the workshop is limited. This year, the MAF is also offering a lecture-only option for the workshop at a reduced cost. The demonstrations on MAF instruments will provide application examples for the material covered in the workshop lectures. The workshop is taught by experienced MAF staff and faculty. Attendees will learn the capabilities of various surface analysis methods, compositional analysis, and electron microscopy imaging as well as how to intelligently review the data from these characterization tools. The workshop will focus on the following methods:
