FEI-Philips XL30 Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope with Field Emission Gun (Equipped with EDAX-Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis Unit)
FEI-Philips XL30 ESEM-FEG offers high resolution imaging as well as low kV imaging for non-coated or insulating materials. A solid state backscattered electron detector (BSE) enables average atomic number imaging and EDS detector allows semi-quantitative X-ray analysis including light element detection.
- Field Emission electron source offers high resolution imaging.
- Secondary electron detector (SE) shows surface morphology.
- Backscattered electron detector (BSE) reveals differences in average atomic number.
- Low kV imaging is possible for non-coated or insulating materials.
- EDS detector allows semi-quantitative elemental analysis and 2D maps of the majör elements.
