Materials Characterization
RJ Lee Group scientists investigate the composition and structure of materials to establish material and elemental properties, internal structure, suitability for use and to explain anomalies.
Our People Make the Difference
RJ Lee Group's team is composed of scientists whose expertise spans numerous dimensions of materials characterization including metals and alloys, thin films, mineralogy, and coatings. Our experts provide services for areas including:
- medical devices
- environmental issues
- pharmaceuticals
- microelectronics
- defect determination
- failure analysis
- nanotechnology
Our driving force is our resolution to first understand the problem and then to solve the problem.
We approach each project by evaluating endorsed techniques, by determining whether or not to combine techniques or to advance a new technique. We select instrumentation based on the resolution, sensitivity and detection limits needed to produce the requested results. We discuss these results with our clients so that they understand how they impact their project and then, when necessary, provide a plan of action.
Our analytical flexibility allows us to comfortably pivot between generic, one-size-fits-many laboratory analyses and problematic studies that demand material-specific expertise. Our staff's time and workplace flexibility allow us to gear up for high sample throughput to meet clients' timelines or to dedicate an expert team to carry out a complex multi-phase project.
Strategic Partnerships
RJ Lee Group provides the best leading-edge analytical technology to our clients. Our strategic partnerships with instrument manufacturers like Hitachi and Thermo Fisher provide us with the newest generation of electron microscopes and the distinction of being the only commercial laboratory in the U.S. to operate them. We are one of only a handful of U.S. laboratories using the Thermo Fisher K-Alpha XPS, a surface-sensitive analytical tool that also provides chemical information, and the Hitachi S-5500, the highest resolution electron microscope combining the best features of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). Our Hitachi S-5500 is the only one available in a commercial service laboratory.
We Are Material Scientists
RJ Lee Group's materials characterization team consists of experts in their field exploring the nano and microscopic, discovering chemical and material properties, validating and developing procedures, testing and affirming quality assurance, and explaining and preventing anomalies. We are the invaluable resource our clients need: responsive laboratory, trusted advisor and regulatory advocate.
