Introducing AMBER 2: Perfecting TEM/STEM Sample Preparation and Nanoprototyping
The original TESCAN AMBER, introduced in 2019, set new standards in materials nanocharacterization with its ultra-high-resolution SEM and advanced Ga+ FIB.
AMBER 2 builds on this legacy with enhanced automation and usability, ensuring precise and efficient sample preparation and 3D analysis.
By streamlining operations with fully automated functions, AMBER 2 reduces complexity for all users. Its advanced automation capabilities allow for routine sample preparation and overnight usage, significantly boosting lab productivity. The system also enhances materials surface characterization with an improved detection system and expands capabilities for prototyping applications such as electron beam lithography.
Newly Enhanced Features of TESCAN AMBER 2
Leveraging an AI-driven approach and an extensive material library, AMBER 2 ensures reliable, fully automated sample preparation across a wide range of materials. Additionally, the integration of a beam blanker on the new generation BrightBeam™ SEM column facilitates effective nanoprototyping through electron beam lithography. AMBER 2 also serves as an excellent entry point for those looking to perform FIB-SEM characterization from micron scale to the nanoscale.
Key Features of TESCAN AMBER 2
- Enhanced Automation: Fully automated processes minimize user intervention and maximize efficiency.
- User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive design for both beginners and advanced users.
- Overnight Operation: Performs automated tasks overnight, increasing lab productivity.
- Precise Sample Preparation: Maintains high resolution and accuracy in sample preparation and imaging.
- Optimized Prototyping: Expands possibilities for prototyping techniques.
