Next-generation tabletop scanning electron microscope

The next-generation TM3000 tabletop scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been launched by Hitachi High-Technologies. Building on the success of its predecessor, the TM-1000, the new microscope offers significantly improved performance in a unit that occupies 20% less space and has an energy saving design.

The new TM3000 is a variable pressure SEM characterised by easy operation, ‘one button’ automatic start, autofocus and other automated onboard functions. These are all controlled through a laptop computer with an intuitive Windows 7-based user interface, designed for use by non-specialists.       Improved electron optics permit maximum magnification to be extended to 30,000x with improved resolution, but also provides three easily selectable modes of operation: surface, normal and high brightness/contrast. Furthermore, exceptional depth of focus, combined with improved imaging capabilities, makes the TM3000 extremely versatile, and an adjustable pressure charge-up reduction mode means that samples can be imaged without the need for special sample preparation.
