Used PHILIPS / FEI 237 #293641377 for sale

PHILIPS / FEI 237 is an ion milling equipment that offers an in-depth view of microstructures of materials. This system utilizes an energetic ion beam in the milling process to accurately and precisely remove areas with the desired resolution and feature width. The ion beam is generated with an ion source that is adjustable in power, flux density and species to best suit the application. The ion beam then enters the ion beam optics where its shape is adjusted, and the spatial and energy distributions are matched accordingly. After this adjustment, the ion beam is directed towards the sample where the milling process takes place. FEI 237 offers superior ion beam control and analysis capabilities, while ensuring excellent surface and shape quality of the milled features. It features an automated milling process that includes various parameters such as archimedes depth of cut, time, beam diameter, and pulse duration for an optimized uniform milling process. This automated process also helps in controlling the ion energy, which enables the unit to precisely determine the feature size and roughness of the milled area. PHILIPS 237 is equipped with a computer-controlled chamber that enhances reproducibility and accuracy of the milling process. This chamber features a gas line machine, which enables users to introduce desired gases into the ion beam path to achieve a specific etch process. Additionally, the tool provides an in-situ analysis asset with an electron backscatter diffraction detector to assess etch uniformity. The incorporation of a secondary electron detector further allows rapid imaging of surface topography and etch facet orientation. 237 is an ideal solution for applications such as micromachining, nanomaterials, semiconductor devices, and biological applications. Its advanced control and analysis capabilities in conjunction with the automated milling process make this model a valuable addition to any research environment.
