The Shared Research Equipment (SHaRE) Program provides access to the wide range of advanced equipment and techniques available in the Metals and Ceramics Division of ORNL to researchers from universities, industry, and other national laboratories. All SHaRE projects are collaborative in nature and address materials science problems in areas of mutual interest to the internal and external collaborators. While all facilities in the Metals and Ceramics Division are available under SHaRE, there is a strong emphasis on analytical electron microscopy (AEM), based on state-of-the-art facilities, techniques, and recognized expertise in the Division. The microscopy facilities include four analytical electron microscopes (one 300 kV, one 200 kV, and two 120 kV instruments), a conventional transmission electron microscope with a low field polepiece for examination of ferromagnetic materials, a high voltage (1 MV) electron microscope with a number of in situ capabilities, and a variety of EM support facilities. An atom probe field ion microscope provides microstructural and elemental characterization at atomic resolution. Other facilities utilized under SHaRE include several Auger electron spectroscopy/surface analytical instruments, a triple beam Van de Graaff accelerator facility for nuclear microanalysis techniques, various x-ray diffraction instruments, a Nanoindenter for high spatial resolution mechanical property measurements, and a host of other advanced and unique facilities.
