Used GATAN 925 #9268663 for sale

GATAN 925 is a focused ion beam milling equipment, used to remove material for the creation of extremely thin samples for use in electron microscopes. The milling system features two separate ion sources - a gallium focused ion beam source and a xenon cluster ion source. The gallium ion source produces a focused beam of gallium that is directed towards the sample, with the beam size determined by the number of electrons at the sample site, allowing the user to customise the size of the beam spot. The xenon cluster ion source produces tiny clusters of xenon atoms that are used as cluster mills, which quickly remove material without generating heat. 925 unit includes a three-axis magnetic deflection machine that allows the user to precisely control the position of the ion beam. This deflection tool features an integrated scanning asset, allowing the user to rapidly scan the beam over the sample area for fast and accurate milling. The model also includes a high power Schottky emitter, which enables a high beam current at a constant energy to ensure milling precision and efficiency. The number of electrons used per pulse is adjustable, and additional features such as Laser Interferometer Stage Stabilization and Ion Cylinder Assembly ensure a high accuracy of milling. GATAN 925 also features an advanced vacuum equipment, designed to maximize ion beam intensity and minimize contamination. The vacuum technology has been optimized to increase sample throughput, allowing high-quality imaging and efficient milling of complex structures. Finally, the system includes a range of software applications designed to simplify sample manipulation. This includes an automated data acquisition unit that allows users to easily create and manipulate images and video clips, and a specimen preparation machine that speeds up sample processing and enables precise fine-tuning of milling parameters.
