Personal Information

Choose one of the following paths:

A. Existing Product: Select an Oxford Instruments product and propose how it could evolve. What feature, function, or redesign would solve a challenge you face or enhance your current work?

B. New Concept: Imagine a future Oxford Instruments product—what would it look like, and what problem would it solve?

List the top 3 features or capabilities that would make this product indispensable to your field.

E.g.,

My idea is to enhance BEX with "Dynamic Compositional Depth Profiling". This would allow the system to enable users to obtain compositional information as a function of depth in situ and in real-time during Focused Ion Beam (FIB) milling. Imagine being able to analyze how the composition of a material changes as you mill through it, all within the SEM. This could revolutionize fields like battery research, semiconductor manufacturing, and materials science.
