Facilities for the determination of molecular weights and molecular weight distributions by size-exclusion chromatography are also available. This facility is open to all qualified users interested in surface characterization. Short training courses are offered throughout the year so that those who are interested can become qualified users quickly. This laboratory includes 10 standard X-ray generators, four rotating anode units, and a variety of goniometers. A full-time engineer assists qualified users and maintains the equipment.
Several courses provide training.
It is also part of a beam line sector at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. Many other facilities are located in other departments throughout the University.
