Carbon Characterization Interest Group Meeting

An interest group of researchers with the common need of characterizing structure and functional groups in carbon-based materials has been formed. The kickoff meeting of the group was held in November 2009; regular meetings are planned throughout the Spring 2010 semester. Click here for meeting dates and more information.

 

MCL Short Courses

Throughout the year, the Materials Characterization Lab (MCL) offers short courses at Penn State aimed at educating students, faculty, post docs, staff, visitors, and industry in various materials characterization techniques.

 

Recent short course offerings included Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Particle Characterization, and Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD).

 

The schedule of future short courses has not yet been established. It will be posted on this website as soon as it is available, so check back periodically if you are interested in short courses.
