Research Application Proposal Research Application Proposal Name* Status and Affiliation (Undergraduate/Graduate (SM or PhD program)/Rotating student/Faculty/other (specify):* Overall goal of the proposed experiment and expected outcomes (please provide all relevant supporting information - name comparable experiments conducted elsewhere, indicate specific techniques and/or equipment, results obtained/expected, images, sketches, published papers, etc.):*Materials* Samples* Technique* Sample Preparation Needs (Specify):* Expected frequency of usage and expected duration of the experiments: (a) One time run (1 hour fully assisted session, usually on one sample to evaluate the technique). (b) General un-assisted evaluation of similar samples without their in-depth examination (1-2 hour sessions with a few basic operational controls). (c) Detailed characterization of certain properties in select samples (3-4 hours per session or longer experiments usually requiring several techniques).*Please specify any additional details relevant to your application. Required sample throughput and expected data availability: (a) Fast sample turnaround with several similar samples to be studied in a session with a few basic operational controls, a fast feedback with data needed to develop a recipe or a process. (b) Detailed analysis of certain properties in select samples (provide further details). User availability for training: (a) Available most of the week (Mo-Fr) (b) Available only on particular days (specify time)*
