Thermo Prisma Environmental-SEM
Location
B04a McCourtney
Capabilities
- Control temperature, gas composition, and pressure (up to 4000pa) while observing the sample using EDS and electron imaging
- Image samples that are traditionally difficult or impossible for SEM, such as hot, dirty, outgassing, wet or otherwise non-conductive samples
Typical Use
- Materials characterization using electron and X-ray techniques on unknown materials, living cells, dirty/non-conductive/outgassing samples
- Compositional mapping using ColorSEM to relate texture to composition
- Observing and recording heating and cooling experiments in the micron to nano scale
- Observing gas and sample interactions live under the microscope
