Electron Microscopy Facility http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/bms/research/facilities/bclem/index

The Electron Microscopy Facility of the Faculty of Science at The University of Sheffield serves the life science community as well as soft matter chemists. It aims to support advances in molecular, cellular, tissue and soft matter research for the University’s departments at an internationally competitive level. It is equipped with one Scanning Electron (SEM) and three Transmission Electron (TEM) microscopes, as well as the associated sample preparation equipment. The most recent addition is an FEI Arctica TEM purchased in 2015 under the University’s Imagine:Imaging Life initiative.

The microscopes are available to all members of the Faculty of Science. Users from outside the faculty are also welcome, as are external users.
