LUMIA - Luleå Material Imaging and Analysis
Within LUMIA, analytical research expertise and advanced analytical equipment have been brought together to create a forum for groundbreaking research and analysis of various materials. LUMIA acts as a hub for the technical analytical capacity at the university and this experimental environment for advanced materials analysis is a creative meeting place for researchers, students, and companies.
Do you have a material that you need to have analyzed?
LUMIA can handle most things in sample preparation before analysis and is also used to handling unconventional sample types.
Laboratories and equipment
Within LUMIA, a large variety of solid materials are analyzed. Characterization is done both in terms of imaging and chemical composition, usually on a micro- to nanometer scale.
Applications
Example areas where analyses in LUMIA have been crucial.
