Short Description
The Helios G4 is a combined electron / focused ion beam microscope for topography and morphology analysis of micro- and nanostructures as well as the structuring of thereof. The system is equipped with a Bruker EDX detector, which allows to determine the composition of chemical elements in a sample.
