Used HITACHI S-5500 #9236030 for sale

HITACHI S-5500 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is a versatile, highly advanced imaging device used for analyzing the surfaces and structures of a wide range of samples. This machine utilizes a highly sensitive electron beam to produce unique and detailed images of materials with magnifications up to 52,000x. In addition to magnification, HITACHI S 5500 can analyze the elemental composition and ultra-structure of a sample, allowing for investigative studies in applied physics, materials science, and life sciences. S-5500 is composed of several components, including an electron gun, a stage, and a specimen chamber. The electron gun produces a high-energy electron beam and directs it towards the sample. This beam irradiates the sample in order to produce secondary electrons and X-rays. These signals are collected by the semiconductor detectors and sent to the control computer for further analysis. S 5500 is equipped with an ultramicrotome, which is a precision slicing device used to produce sections as thin as 5 nanometers. This device allows for the examination of extremely thin layers of a sample in order to analyze the microscopic features from topographic images. The specimen chamber contains the sample and is designed to protect it from environmental damage during the imaging process. This chamber is also capable of generating vacuum environments in order to reduce the damaging effects of electron beam irradiation on sensitive specimens. HITACHI S-5500 also features an advanced charge compensation system. This system removes the electrical charges from the sample, which can accumulate during the imaging process. This charge compensation helps to prevent damage to the sample and enables more accurate imaging results. The control computer of HITACHI S 5500 is an incredibly powerful system, capable of generating detailed X-ray diffraction images, live three-dimensional maps of the specimen's surface, and secondary electron images. It also offers an array of graphical and statistical analyses of the data. S-5500 Scanning Electron Microscope is a powerful and precise imaging device for conducting material and structural analysis. Its integration of cutting-edge technology, including ultra-microtome slicing, charge compensation, and powerful computer control, make it an ideal tool for a variety of scientific applications.
