High Resolution, High Contrast
The extraordinary low-voltage performance of the Verios, empowered by FEI’s best-in-class Elstar™ Schottky monochromated (UC) FESEM technology, provides extremely precise, surface-specific information that has been unavailable previously from other techniques. Optimal contrast selection and low dose operation is guaranteed by its advanced suite of high-sensitivity in-column and below-the-lens detectors, signal filtering and imaging capabilities.
Accurate and Flexible
The Verios also features precise, repeatable metrology, thanks to its ultra-stable design including new calibration and measurement solutions. Furthermore, accurate navigation is achieved with a five-axis 100 mm piezo-ceramic stage complemented by easy to use navigation packages. Thanks to its large chamber and high current mode, samples up to 200 mm in diameter can be accommodated, cleaned, navigated, imaged and analyzed with minimal preparation and fastest time to nanoscale information, without the need to switch to Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).
