At the moment we have three SEM's. Together they cover a wide range of needs in the cleanroom: 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. | At the moment we have three SEM's.

The SEM that will cover most users needs is the [[/Leo|Leo SEM]]. It is very reliable and rugged instrument that provides high quality images of most samples. Due to its robustness new users only need a mandatory two hour training session before they are free to use it by themselves. It is a standard high vacuum instrument equipped with a field emission gun, 3 high vacuum electron detectors (Se2, Inlens and RBSD) and a Röntec EDX system. | The SEM that will cover most users needs is the [[/Leo|Leo SEM]].

You can obtain excellent images on a large variety of materials such as silicon, silicon oxides or nitrides, metals and some polymers. | ||
