The recently-installed ION-TOF Qtac 100 High Sensitivity-Low Energy Ion Scattering (HS-LEIS) (bottom right) provides users with unprecedented surface analysis technique -- isolating and examining the very top or outer atomic layer, just 0.2 to 0.3 nm thick.

The Scienta ESCA 300 (top left), one of 11 in the world and the only one in the U.S., is among the most powerful instruments available for such research. With this instrument, Lehigh and visiting researchers can glean information about the top 10 atomic layers of a material.

Simply put, it's technology that doesn't exist anywhere else in the Western hemisphere.
