INGV-RM1 - HPHT lab: microanalytical facility
The INGV‐RM1 HPHT infrastructure comprises the INGV-RM1 Microanalytical Laboratory (Installation 1), that is equipped with a JEOL JSM-6500F field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and a JEOL JXA-8200 electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) and all the necessary equipment for the preparation of microanalytical samples. The JSM-6500F is a high-performance analytical FESEM integrating JEOL’s Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyser for fast elemental analysis. It offers high-resolution images of microscopic surface structures. The JXA-8200 SuperProbe is a high-resolution SEM, with five wavelength dispersive spectrometers (WDS) with 12 crystals, and an EDX spectrometer. The instrument is designed to measure the composition of a solid polished material quantitatively on a micron-scale or to generate accurate characteristic X-ray elemental distribution maps.
Processing and acquisition software available at the facility:
- Jeol software
- Oxford Aztec
