Earlier this year, we were all buzzing over the arrival of our brand-new Hitachi Electron Microscope FlexSEM 1000-II! It’s sleek, powerful, and will take your imaging to the next level. The SEM (installed on Feb 12,2025) combines innovative technological features with an intuitive interface, to deliver adaptability and flexibility in a powerful, automated, lab-friendly package with the following newer capabilities and specs:
a) Allow users to use uncoated biological samples;
b) Ultra-Variable Pressure (UVD) Detector;
c) Uni-Bias (Even emission across entire voltage range);
d)Integrated Oxford EDS (The X-ray system-EDS can operate on the same PC;
e)Variable pressure operation (6 to 100Pa range);
f) Dual=operation mode (user-friendly, Easy Mode beginning users or student to get great images. Advanced Mode for experts);
g) large sample size allowed: up to 80 mm diameter of surface area and up to 40 mm of sample thickness;
h) 3-axis (X/Y/R) Motor Driven Stage: X:50mm, Y:40mm, Z:5-33mm, Rotation: 360 degrees, Tilt: -15 to +90 degrees; Magnification Range: 16x to 800,000x (display); Accelerating Voltage Range: 0.3kV to 20kV
