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 several modes, such as high vacuum, low vacuum at room temperature. Our AFEG is fitted with EDS and WDS detectors, which allows for analytical measurements in all the operation modes
