Used ZEISS 9-S2 #126381 for sale

ZEISS 9-S2 scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a high-performance research-grade instrument, designed for imaging and structural analysis of a broad range of specimen types. Its features advanced flexibility, and easy operation and maintenance make it ideal for advanced laboratories. 9-S2 employs a unique combination of detectors and analyses methods to produce high-quality images. It combines a low-temperature Schottky field emission gun (FEG), working in low vacuum (LVP) or variable pressure (VP) mode, with a range of detectors to produce high-resolution images without compromising contrast or throughput. For 2D imaging, ZEISS 9-S2 has an ultra-high resolution and dynamic range backscattered electron (BSE) detector, a large-area graphene monochromator for laser-pulsed imaging, and a low-energy BSE detector for elemental mapping. It is also equipped with three digital cameras, including a navigation camera, a high-resolution digital camera, and a low-resolution monochrome camera. For topographical imaging, 9-S2 has an integrated, low-vibration stage for large-scale scanning. It also has an adjustable working distance, allowing for varying specimen preparation depths. ZEISS 9-S2 is designed to minimize specimen charging via an onboard charge neutralizer, which also creates a pseudo-zero-volume environment that prevents surface contamination from interfering with the imaging process. 9-S2 also features a versatile analysis package that allows for a variety of measurements, including automatic quantitative EDX, STEM mapping, phase identification, and chemical imaging. EDX can be used to characterize the elemental composition of a sample, while STEM mapping provides three-dimensional imaging of small details. Phase identification enables the identification of crystallographic orientation and nano-scale mapping of grain boundaries, while chemical imaging can reveal fine features in detail. ZEISS 9-S2 is also outfitted with a number of user-friendly features that make operation and maintenance easy. A large intuitive touchscreen and an integrated user interface give users access to data acquisition, system setup, and control. ZEISS IX Suite, a powerful, comprehensive suite of software tools, provides detailed analysis, image processing, and data management capabilities. For added convenience, 9-S2 is compact and portable, making it an ideal desktop SEM for any advanced laboratory.
