FEI Nova 600 NanoLab

The instrument is located in the clean room, room C116

The FEI Nova 600 NanoLab is a dual-beam instrument that integrates ion and electron beams for focused-ion-beam (FIB) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) functionality in one machine. Users can switch between the two beams for quick and accurate navigation and processing. Convergence of the SEM and FIB at short working distance allows precision milling, etching and deposition at high resolution.

Features

  • 30 kV Sidewinder Ga+ ion column, 1.5 pA to 20 nA, 1 kV to 30 kV
  • 30 kV Sirion electron column, 500 V to 30 kV
  • Secondary electron, limited backscattered electron, and secondary ion imaging
  • Gas injection systems: platinum, tungsten, TEOS, carbon
  • Micromanipulator from Omniprobe: Autoprobe 200
  • Raith Elphy lithography system set up for ion-beam lithography

The instrument is located in the CNM clean room.
