A suite of three world-class electron microscopes, including one of the highest resolution microscopes in the world, now calls Monash home.
Worth more than a combined $20 million, three cutting-edge instruments will be unveiled today by Dr Carina Garland MP, Member for Chisholm, at the Monash Centre for Electron Microscopy (MCEM) at the University’s Clayton campus.
The microscopes were custom-built by Thermo Fisher Scientific, and two are globally unique and enable unparalleled capabilities.
The technology underpins the development of vital materials needed for high-speed computer chips, better batteries, more efficient solar panels, biodegradable plastics, communication devices, lighter, stronger metals for energy-efficient aircraft alloys, and green technologies, such as cleaner mineral extraction.
