Key instrumentation
Scanning Probe Microscopes

Thanks to its versatility and accessories, the SEM FEI is very useful for the characterization in high vacuum, low vacuum, and extended low vacuum (ESEM) conditions of inorganic, organic, and biological materials through morphological analysis using different detectors and elemental analysis and mapping. The accessory for in-SEM mechanical analysis of samples is also available.
