Focused Ion Beam

The Crossbeam combines the imaging and analytical performance of an scanning electron microscope with the ability for material processing and sample preparation with focused Galliumions. The capabilities including 3D nanotomography,  nanofabrication and lamellas for transmission electron microscopy.
