FE-SEM + EDS
Field-emission SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope)
Thermo Scientific Apreo S
with
Oxford Instruments UltimMax 100 Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS)
This field-emission SEM can be used for high-resolution imaging and to obtain compositional and elemental information of the surface or near-surface region of different samples.
SEM is useful for materials science and for industrial manufacturing and can be used to image materials ranging e.g. from nano- and microparticles, catalysts, and nanodevices to bulk magnetic samples and insulators such as polymers. This SEM has broad analytical extensions: STEM (Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy) detector for TEM grid imaging, Cathodoluminescence detector (CLD) and EDS detector.
