Phenom (electron microscope)

Phenom electron microscope

Phenom is by far the fastest electron microscope originally developed by the engineering whizz kids from Philips and FEI in Eindhoven and further developed by Phenom-World. Phenom is a small, table-top sized Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), with unique navigation due to the combination of optical and electron-optical images: The optical image enables a "Neverlost" function: You can always navigate to any point on the sample, by simply pointing to any position on the optical image. Sample loading takes place in 4 seconds (to obtain the CMOS overview image) and only 30 seconds into the vacuum space via rapid transfer technology (no conventional load lock). The system user interface is controlled with a touch screen. No SEM experience is required for users to achieve magnifications of up to 100,000 times with a resolution of down to 15 nm. An optional fully integrated X-ray analysis (EDS) system, operated in the famous and simple "Phenom-way" shows the user in just seconds what the sample is made of.
