FIB-SEM | DB550

Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) with Focused Ion Beam (FIB) Columns

 

The CIQTEK DB550 Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope (FIB-SEM) has a focused ion beam column for nano-analysis and specimen preparation. It utilizes “super tunnel” electron optics technology, low aberration and non-magnetic objective design, and has the “low voltage, high resolution” feature to ensure its nanoscale analytical capabilities.

 

The ion columns facilitate a Ga+ liquid metal ion source with highly stable and high quality ion beams to ensure nanofabrication capabilities. The DB550 is an all-in-one nano-analysis and fabrication workstation with an integrated nano-manipulator, gas injection system, and user-friendly GUI software.

FIB-SEM features

1. "Super Tunnel" electron optics column technology/in-column beam deceleration

Decrease spatial charging effect, ensuring low voltage resolution performance.

 

2. Crossover-free in the electron beam path

Effectively reduce lens aberrations and improve resolution.

 

3. Electromagnetic & electrostatic compound objective lens

Reduce aberrations, significantly improve resolution at low voltages, and enable observation of magnetic samples.

 

4. Water-cooled constant-temperature objective lens

Ensure the stability, reliability, and repeatability of the objective lens performance.

 

5.  Variable multi-hole aperture switching system by electro-magnetic beam deflection

Automatic switching between apertures without mechanical motion allows fast switching among various imaging modes.

>> Semiconductor

In the semiconductor industry, IC chips may encounter various failures. Various methods are used to analyze the chips to improve reliability. In particular, focused ion beam (FIB) analysis is a reliable analytical technique.

Specimen Characterization / Micro-Nano Fabrication / Cross-section Analysis / TEM Specimen Preparation / Failure Analysis

>> New Energy Industry

Observation and analysis of material cross-sections for research and process development.

Morphology Observation / Particle Size Analysis / Cross-section Analysis / Composition and Phase Analysis / Failure Analysis of Lithium-ion Battery Material / TEM Sample Preparation

>> Ceramic Material

Material analysis: The FIB-SEM system can perform high-precision micro-nano machining and imaging of ceramic materials, combined with various signal detection modes such as backscattered electrons (BSE), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Electron Backscattered Diffraction Pattern (EBSD), and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), to study the material in micro to nano-scale with three-dimensional space in depth.

>> Alloy Material

To increase the strength, hardness, toughness, etc., of metals, other substances such as ceramics, metals, fibers, etc., are added into the metal using methods such as metallurgy, casting, extrusion, etc., which are called reinforced phases.

TEM specimen prepared by an FIB-SEM is used to observe information such as reinforced phases and boundary atoms through transmitted electron signals. TEM specimens can be used for transmission Kikuchi Diffraction (TKD) analysis, metallographic analysis, compositional analysis, and in-situ testing of alloy cross-section.
