Iowa State Chooses the LEAP 3000X Si

October 26, 2006

As the centerpiece of its new W.M. Keck Laboratory for High Throughput Atom-Scale Analysis, Iowa State University has chosen Imago Scientific Instruments and the LEAP 3000X Si microscope.  The new laboratory will be the primary research center of Iowa State's Institute for Combinatorial Discovery (ICD).  LEAP tomography provides materials scientists with 3D images of their specimens with angstrom-scale resolution, with each element in the sample identified uniquely and measured quantitatively. Iowa State chose Imago's system due to a number of factors including the fact that the MicroTip sampling arrays help with specimen preparation and high sample throughput requirements.  With the LEAP 3000X Si, Iowa State is poised to become a national resource in informatics-based materials research.
