The FEI Nova 600 NanoSEM Scanning Electron Microscope is a very versatile characterization instrument that produces enlarged images of a variety of specimens, achieving magnifications of over 500.000 times providing ultra high resolution imaging. At the time being this microscope is mainly designated for microstructural characterization using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_backscatter_diffraction electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD)] , [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy-dispersive_X-ray_spectroscopy Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS)] and forward scatter electron imaging by detectors recently bought from [http://www.bruker.com/ Bruker]. | |||
