The FEI AFEG 250 FEG is a field emission scanning electron microscope with a spatial resolution of 2 nm for the ETD detector in high vacuum at 30 keV. The microscope can operate in high vacuum or low vacuum at room temperature. Our AFEG is fitted with EDS and WDS detectors, which allows for analytical measurements.
