  1. The Laboratory for MultiScale Imaging (LMSI) A Shared Resource for Interdisciplinary Research and Training Vision:Provide state-of-the-art instrumentation and expertise in morphological characterization to elevate the level of research at Stevens and provide leverage to attract further support for new self-sustaining programs. • Instrumentation • Scanning Electron Microscopy (LEO 982 HR FEG SEM) • Transmission Electron Microscopy (Philips CM20 FEG CM20 cryo-TEM/STEM) • Confocal Fluorescence Optical Microscopy (Nikon E1000 with C1 confocal) • Atomic Force Microscope/Dip-Pen Nnaolithography system (Pacific Nanotechnology Nano R with NanoInk DPN) Matt Libera, LMSI Director, x5259, mlibera@stevens.edu Bert Greenberg, LMSI Senior Scientist, x5258, berton.greenberg@stevens.edu

  2. Self Assembly Lab: Wet polymer and inorganic materials chemistry Core Facilities for Microscopy Human resources cross-disciplinary students and staff Student Offices Multifunctional polymer labs Student offices CM20 FEG Cryo TEM/STEM AFM/DPN lab Specimen prep lab Micro- Reactor assembly Lab Director FEG SEM Tech. Office Microreactor Assembly Lab: PDMS-based design and integration X-ray Lab Confocal microscope Biofilm culture lab Biofilm Research Laboratory for MultiScale Imaging Floorplan

  3. Self-user training • Scanning electron microscope (SEM) • > 72 SEM self users since 1996 • well-established training protocol • Dr. Bert Greenberg (staff scientist) • 4th class of 6 users on 09/8/06 • Transmission electron microscope (TEM) • > 28 TEM self users since 1992 • developing new training protocol • focus on nanoparticles/polymers • Use fees • Offset maintenance costs • Staff salaries • Critical consumables Using the LMSI Work with LMSI staff to collect necessary data Do I expect to do a lot of microscopy? Is my research enhanced by imaging? Train to becomeself user
