The increases gained by the SDD allow more complex data collection routines which drive new applications in microanalysis.\u0026nbsp; Specifically, phase mapping characterizes materials in a more comprehensive manner, revealing elemental distribution and associations that were not previously possible.\u0026nbsp; Examples include phase mapping of ceramic materials, automotive components and low kV analysis of graphene.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E11:30 am Session 2 \u2013 Integrated EDS and EBSD Analysis \u2013 Including 3D Microanalysis\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis 50 minute session will start with a background and introduction to the hardware and geometrical considerations of integrated EDS and EBSD components.\u0026nbsp; Signal collection, image processing and kikuchi band indexing at high speeds will be evaluated to show how high quality data, even at faster collection rates, is now possible.\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;The analysis of large scales ranging from tens of nanometers to millimeters for a wide range of crystalline materials is the result, enabling microstructural understandings complimentary to techniques such as XRD.\u0026nbsp; 3D microanalysis datasets will be explored to conclude this session.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPresenter:\u0026nbsp; \u003Cstrong\u003ETara Nylese\u003C\/strong\u003E \u003Cem\u003EEDAX Global Applications Manager, Mahwah, NJ\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETara Nylese is the EDAX Global Applications Manager who works with EDS, EBSD and WDS technologies.\u0026nbsp; She holds a Master\u2019s degree in Chemistry along with a Professional Science Masters (PSM) which finds the commercial end of the applied science and technology.\u0026nbsp; She started her career in microanalysis primarily with SEM\/EDS based techniques and over the course of her 17 years with EDAX has added the additional capabilities of EBSD and WDS into her analytical approaches.\u0026nbsp; Her main emphasis is on finding ways to increase the integration between techniques to create solutions that are beyond the limit of each individual technique.\u0026nbsp; Of particular interest are applications of phase mapping and how to fully characterize materials with subtle differences that create a high level of materials characterization.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp align=\u0022center\u0022\u003ELight refreshments and beverages will be served.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp align=\u0022center\u0022\u003EPlease RSVP to Walter Henderson, \u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:walter.henderson@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ewalter.henderson@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E, by Wednesday, January 22\u003Csup\u003End\u003C\/sup\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E .\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\uff34he Bio- and Nano-Charaterization Group of the IEN is pleased to host EDAX for a 2 session series of presentations on SEM-based elemental and structural analysis."}],"uid":"27863","created_gmt":"2014-01-22 09:02:29","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:23:22","author":"Christa Ernst","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2014-01-24T09:30:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2014-01-24T11:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2014-01-24T11:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2014-01-24 14:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2014-01-24 16:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2014-01-24 16:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":["free_food"],"hg_media":{"270021":{"id":"270021","type":"image","title":"EDAX logo","body":null,"created":"1449244077","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:47:57","changed":"1475894959","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:49:19","alt":"EDAX logo","file":{"fid":"198610","name":"edaxlogo.png","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/edaxlogo_0.png","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/edaxlogo_0.png","mime":"image\/png","size":20267,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/edaxlogo_0.png?itok=Z49SfvjV"}}},"media_ids":["270021"],"groups":[{"id":"197261","name":"Institute for Electronics and Nanotechnology"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"84521","name":"bio-nanotechnology"},{"id":"12701","name":"Institute for Electronics and Nanotechnology"},{"id":"84291","name":"materials characterization"},{"id":"107","name":"Nanotechnology"},{"id":"167881","name":"SEM"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"},{"id":"26411","name":"Training\/Workshop"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
