Welcome to the
Australian Microscopy & Microanalysis Research Facility (AMMRF)

Established in July 2007 under the Commonwealth Government’s National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS), the Australian Microscopy & Microanalysis Research Facility is a joint venture between Australian university-based microscopy and microanalysis centres.

The AMMRF is a national grid of equipment, instrumentation and expertise in microscopy and microanalysis that provides nanostructural characterisation capability and services, including widely used optical, electron, X-ray and ion-beam techniques and world-leading flagship platforms. The latter include pulsed-laser local-electrode atom probe, high-throughput cryo-TEM, high-resolution SEM and spectroscopy, as well as high-precision ion probes.

This collaborative facility, comprising research expertise and research infrastructure, is accessible by all Australian researchers, enabling discovery and innovation in Australian science. Operating nodes in major capital cities, and with links to smaller units in specialist facilities, it provides access to a vast array of instrumentation.

The AMMRF offers a complete, modern suite of instruments accessible to all Australian publicly funded researchers on the basis of merit and a nominal fee schedule. Industry-based researchers can also access the facilities for proprietary research at commercial rates.
