The ThermoFisher Apreo HiVac SEM is a Schottky Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) that combines high and low-voltage ultra-high resolution capabilities with an electrostatic lens design. The instrument features beam deceleration and unique in-lens detection offering unprecedented contrast and versatility to researchers working with a variety of materials and devices. Achievable resolution is 0.8nm at 15kV and 1.0nm at 1kV using the immersion lens. The Apreo SEM is equipped with EDAX EDS and EBSD detectors.
