UTCT has been awarded another round of NSF Multi-User Facility support by the Earth Sciences Directorate (EAR). This grant will help us continue to extend priority service to the NSF-funded community into 2015.
In 2008 UTCT expanded our imaging capabilities with the acquisition of an Xradia MicroXCT scanner. This scanner is capable of sub-micron resolution, thus effectively covering the smaller specimen size ranges (<1 cm) previously beyond our capabilities. Click here for sample imagery.
