The SPS team has successfully installed and conducted training for the Axia ChemiSEM Scanning Electron Microscope at the Africa Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Power and Energy Development (ACE-SPED), University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

This state-of-the-art SEM is now a centerpiece in the materials characterisation laboratory. Equipped for both qualitative and quantitative analyses, the Axia ChemiSEM enables advanced imaging, image-centric analysis, X-ray spectral mapping and line scanning with its Back-Scattered Electron Detector (BSED).
Its exceptional capabilities allow for in-depth analysis, visualisation, and quantification of microstructures, significantly advancing research and innovation in materials science.
“Professor Emenike Ejiogu, Director of ACE-SPED, highlighted during a recent briefing that the acquisition and installation of this cutting-edge equipment support the center’s commitment to sustainable research and development.”
