Scios 2 DualBeam provides:

• Fast and easy preparation of high-quality, site-specific, TEM and Atom probe samples using the Sidewinder HT ion column.
• Ultra-high resolution imaging using NICol electron column with best-in-class performance on the widest range of samples, including magnetic and non-conductive materials.
• The most complete sample information with sharp, refined, and charge-free contrast obtained from a variety of integrated in-column and below-the-lens detectors.
• Access to high-quality, multi-modal subsurface and 3D information with precise targeting of the region of interest using optional Auto Slice & View™ 4 (AS&V4) software.
• Precise sample navigation tailored to individual application needs thanks to the high flexibility 110 mm stage and in-chamber Nav-Cam.
• Artifact-free imaging and patterning with dedicated modes such as SmartScan™, DCFI and Drift Suppression.
• Optimization of your solution to meet specific application requirements thanks to flexible DualBeam configuration.

Fast and easy preparation of high-quality TEM samples

Scientists and engineers constantly face new challenges that require highly localized characterization of increasingly complex samples with ever smaller features. The latest technological innovations of the Scios 2 DualBeam, in combination with the easiest-to-use, most comprehensive AutoTEM™ 4 software (optional) and Thermo Fisher Scientific’s application expertise, allow for fast and easy preparation of site-specific HR-S/TEM samples for a wide range of materials. In order to achieve the high-quality results, final polishing with low-energy ions is required to minimize surface damage on the sample. The Sidewinder HT Focused Ion Beam (FIB) column not only delivers high-resolution imaging and milling at high voltages but has also good low-voltage performance, enabling the creation of high-quality TEM lamella.
