Northwestern University Atomic and Nanoscale Characterization Experimental Center

NUANCE Center integrates three existing complementary instrumentation facilities at NU: EPIC, NIFTI, and Keck-II under a unified management umbrella, and consolidated into contiguous space. These three facilities are a unique, centralized, resource for the NU community and beyond. NUANCE still retains the individual identity of the three facilities but their integration with unified operations permits synergy among instruments, staff, training, service and technical expertise.

EPIC (Electron Probe Instrumentation Center)

Keck-II (Keck Interdiscplinary Surface Science Center)
