Remote Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Investigations of Photovoltaics

Photo of Scanning Electron Microscope

About this research opportunity

Students will conduct a literature review; and then with instructor guidance, they will each individually design, carry out, and analyze an experiment in the field of photovoltaics using a remotely-operated tabletop scanning electron microscope. Students will then each present their results in a virtual session open to the public, and present their experience either live or in a recording for a K-12 classroom.

This is a course-based research experience offered in fall session B of 2024.
