FEI Apreo LoVac FE-SEM

"Scanning electron microscope for versatile, high performance materials imaging and analysis."


The Thermo Scientific Apreo Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) features a revolutionary compound lens design combined with electrostatic and magnetic immersion technology to yield unprecedented resolution and signal selection. This makes the Apreo SEM the platform of choice for research on nanoparticles, catalysts, powders and nanodevices, without compromising on magnetic sample performance.
The Apreo SEM benefits from unique in-lens backscatter detection, which provides excellent materials contrast, even at tilt, short working distance, or on sensitive samples. The novel compound lens further improves contrast with energy filtering and adds charge filtering for imaging of insulating samples. The optional low-vacuum mode now has a 500 Pa maximum chamber  pressure for imaging even the most demanding  insulators.
With all these advantages, including the compound final lens, advanced detection and flexible sample handling, the performance and versatility of the Apreo SEM can meet your research challenges for many years to come.

The X-MaxN Silicon Drift Detector large area sensor chips, digital signal processing, and innovative packaging deliver the highest sensitivity for accurate analysis of all types of samples including fragile samples and nano-materials.
