In-situ heating stages allow dynamic microstructural observations and can provide new insights into materials research.
- Modules are specially engineered for the scanning electron microscope (SEM) environment
- Custom designs allow quick fitting and removal from SEM stages so normal SEM use can be resumed quickly
- Designed to be compatible with geometrical requirements of different detectors including electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) for dynamic observations
Murano heating stage
- Murano stage available for heating to 950 °C for EBSD applications and secondary electron detector (SED) imaging
- Study real-time crystallisation and phase transformations at elevated temperatures up to 950 °C
- Proprietary design enables offline specimen mounting and storage
- Bulk specimen support designed specifically to operate within EBSD/focused ion beam (FIB)/SED geometry constraints
- Water cooling and heat protective shielding ensure maximum protection at elevated temperatures
- Additional bias control to assist with imaging at elevated temperatures
