Introduction to RISE Microscopy
This tutorial introduces the RISE microscope at the Oxford Instruments Ulm site.
Starting with SEM imaging, Oxford Instruments will analyze porous SiC ceramics, which contain different SiC polytypes. These SiC polytypes can then be identified with Raman imaging by analyzing the molecular bonds within the crystal structure. The correlation between Raman and SEM images will be highlighted.
You will learn:
- How to do a RISE measurement
- The added value Raman brings to SEM
- How to assess Raman data using True Component Analysis
About the Speakers
Ulrich Rupp: Application Scientist, Oxford Instruments
Dr. Rupp studied biology and biophysics at the University of Ulm in Germany, where he also earned a Ph.D. for ultrastructural research on calcium transport via epithelial tissue in diverse organisms. He has been employed as an application scientist at Oxford Instruments' Ulm site since 2023.
Ute Schmidt: Lead Application Scientist at Oxford Instruments
Dr. Schmidt studied physics at Babes Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, and earned a Ph.D. from the University of Karlsruhe in Germany.
Her work with in-situ scanning tunneling microscopy in an electrochemical setting exposed her to scanning probe microscopy. She has worked as a Lead Application Scientist at Oxford Instruments' Ulm site since 2003.
Stefan Kreissl: Application Scientist at Oxford Instruments
Dr. Kreissl studied geosciences at the University of Tübingen in Germany, where he earned a Ph.D. in metallogenic ore formation.
He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Fachhochschule Aalen and an R&D engineer at Varta, where he worked on lithium-ion batteries and functional ceramics. He has worked as an Application Scientist at Oxford Instruments' Ulm site since 2022.
