| A Danchip there are four scanning electron microscopes (SEMs). These SEMs cover a wide range of needs both in the cleanroom and outside: From the fast in-process verification of different process parameters such as etch rates, step coverages or lift-off quality to the ultra high resolution images on any type of sample intended for publication.
| | The SEM LEO is a scanning electron microscope. It is a very reliable and rugged instrument that provides high quality SEM images of most samples, and it has excellently served the users of the cleanroom for many years. Excellent images on a large variety of materials such as semiconductors, semiconductor oxides or nitrides, metals, thin films and some polymers may be acquired on the SEM. |

|
| All SEMs are operated by use of the same software, hardpanel and joystick. But there are small hardware differences, thus a training is needed for each SEM you want to use.
| | However, the SEM LEO has now been equipped with a Raith e-beam lithography system, and from the turn of the year 2015-2016 it is exclusively dedicated to the users of the Raith E-beam lithography, so system so general imaging of user samples is no longer allowed. |

| The SEM LEO is good, reliable, the software is basically indentical to the SEM Zeiss software, and for conducting samples (or thin layers, < 5-10 µm, of hard non-conducting materials such as oxide/nitride on top a conducting substrate) the resolution of the SEM LEO is almost comparable to the both the SEM 1, SEM 2 and SEM 3 Supra 60VP.
