ZEISS Crossbeam 550 FIB-SEM



The ZEISS 550 Crossbeam is a highly versatile instrument for material sciences (natural and synthetic, organic and inorganic), advanced materials, electronics, manifacturing and life sciences.
Combining imaging and analytical performance of a high-resolution field emission gun scanning electron microscope (FEG-SEM) with the processing capability of a focused ion beam (FIB) and a gas injection system, our ZEISS 550 Crossbeam enables:

>  High-resolution imaging 

>  Microanalyses (energy dispersive system, EDS) 

>  SEM–based quantitative microstructural-crystallographic analyses (electron backscattered diffraction, EBSD) 

>  Multichannel large area mapping 

>  Multichannel 3D tomography (imaging, EDS, EBSD) 

>  Sample preparation for TEM, APT, AFM (e.g., electron transparent films, chips, pillars) 

>  Nanofabrication through gas-assisted deposition and etching 

The Atlas software allows refinding between different imaging modalities, enabling correlative imaging of specimens.
