Scanning Electron Microscopy
JEOL JSM 7900F
Unique flexible platform that combines the ultimate in high resolution imaging with unparalleled nano scale microanalysis. This tool excels in lightning fast data acquisition through simple and semi-automated operation.
USES/APPLICATIONS
Applications include imaging and analysis of metals, magnetic materials, semiconductors, ceramics, medical devices, and biological specimens.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The JSM-700F is equipped with a large specimen chamber that accommodates a wide variety of detectors simultaneously, including:
- Secondary and back scattered electron imaging detectors,
- EDS for chemical analysis [Oxford Instruments Aztec Xmax-170],
- EBSD for orientation mapping [Oxford Instruments Aztec HKL Advanced Symmetry System],
- Transmission Bright-field,
- Dark field STEM capabilities.
The un-lens Schottky field emission gun (FEG) provides improved brightness, smaller probe sizes with increased probe current for improved analytical performance.
The Super Hybrid lens enables observation of specimens at ultra-high spatial resolution including magnetic and insulating materials.
The new Gentle Beam Super High mode (GBSH) enables a bias voltage of up to 5 kV to be applied to the specimen stage, which decreases charging on nonconductive specimens; improves spot size at low kV; enhances surface tomography; and further enables high-resolution imaging at extremely low voltages.
