Description
FEI Magellan XHR SEM system extreme high resolution (XHR) SEM. Its innovative electron-optical elements, beam deceleration, and immersion capabilities allow the Magellan to support flexible imaging operations and refined topographic and materials information. Magellan enables users to explore further into smaller and finer details with its flexibility and ability to observe nanoscale surface details, particles, and material interfaces and analyze chemical information.
The combination of high collection efficiency through-lens detector (TLD), the unique low voltage (UC mode), beam deceleration and immersion capabilities allows the Magellan to support complex imaging operations and refined topographic and materials information. The 5 axis piezoceramic Magellan stage allows for a wide travel range in a highly adaptative and large chamber. Both small and large samples can be positioned under the beam in virtually any orientation.
Sample transfer can be completed in minutes, using the quickloader.
Sample sizes and holders:
• Maximum size: 100 mm diameter with full rotation
• Maximum thickness: 8.7 mm (via quickloader with the standard shuttle including stub)
20 mm (via chamber door):
• Weight: 200 g (including holder)
• Rotation: 360 ° continuous
Holders: Multi-stub holder (std for 400 L)
Cross-sectional holder (std for 400 L)
Single stub mount, mounts directly onto stage
