Crystal growth & sample preparation

In our sample preparation laboratory, we can prepare any material systems from different research areas for scanning or transmission electron microscopy investigations. There are a variety of devices and specially made tools (also self-made) available.

• polishing tables
• ultramicrotome
• Equipment for thinning and polishing using argon ions
• diamond wire saw
• thread sawing
• Heating cabinets and tables
• Steaming equipment (mainly carbon)
• microscopes

In our Crystal Labs, we synthesize single crystals of novel low-dimensional magnetic materials.
