Info

We strongly recommend that you discuss the technical aspects of your proposal prior to submission by contacting one of the ePSIC staff scientists.

...

    1. Standard- A one-off proposal for a six month allocation period
    2. Diamond Oxford Collaboration at ePSIC – A proposal in collaboration with The University of Oxford
    3. Rapid - A justifiably urgent request for beamtime


Info

For continuation / re-submission you will be presented with a list of proposals in the UAS to choose from. In these cases, most of the fields will be populated from the previously submitted information. Please modify where applicable. In the Science Case template please provide an update to the peer-review panel on what was achieved in the previous sessions and what is your goal in this follow-up round of experiments. If there are outputs, e.g. journal publications, conference proceedings, theses, please specify. Please also submit your experimental sessions report on the UAS.

...


Note: If you are an Oxford PI and need access to E01- JEM ARM 200CF please apply through the standard Diamond proposal route. Please contact the ePSIC Principal Electron Microscopist  christopher.allen@diamond.ac.uk if you have any questions regarding the route to select when applying for beamtime.

4. On the sidebar, select Science Overview. Please fill out / provide an answer for all the entries. Using the template provided, prepare the science case for your proposal. Please note that this is the core of your proposal and the feasibility and suitability of your proposed experiment(s) will be judged on the information you provide within this section. Upload the final document under UPLOAD SCIENCE CASE window. There is a limit of 2 MB for this attachment.

titleSample Requirements

All proposals require evidence (normally screening data taken on other instruments) of suitable samples for aberration-corrected electron microscopy. The screening data should demonstrate that the sample thickness is suitable for high-resolution imaging / spectroscopy at the accelerating voltage requested, i.e. screening ideally to be carried out at 80 kV if the voltage requested is less than 200 kV.
