Quanta FEG Options
A range of hardware and software is available as options for the
system. Contact your FEI sales representative for more up-to-date
information on system options.
• The Support PC connects your work space to the network and
can hold some other software utilities.
• The Manual User Interface (MUI) provides direct manual control
of microscope parameters such as focus, magnification, contrast,
brightness, beam shift and Stigmator.
• The Joystick brings another possibility to control the basic stage
movements.
• The Cooling Stage enables to image and analyse specimens
(cooled between 0 and 10 °C) of very diverse nature at relative
humidity conditions up to 100% (typical chamber pressures
required are in the range 300 - 1000 Pa). Humidity experiments
could characterize the sample morphology and phase distribution.
The stage is cooled by water.
• The Waterless Cooling Stage uses copper belt to detract heat
excess.
• The 1000 °C Heating Stage is used to view heated samples (up to
1000 °C) and record in-situ morphological changes.
• The 1500 °C Heating Stage enables to heat samples up to 1500 °C.
This option includes two 1500 °C and one 1000 °C heating stages.
• The Cooling / Heating Stage control kit
• The Feed-through Port Relocator
• 52-pin Electrical Feed-through
• 7-pin Electrical Feed-through
• The Compressor 115 V, 50/60 Hz with 4-liter Tank
• The Compressor 230 V, 50/60 Hz with 4-liter Tank
• The Thermo Neslab Water Cooler 50 Hz
• The Thermo Neslab Water Cooler 60 Hz
• The Acoustic Enclosure for Pre-vacuum Pump
• The Specimen Holder Kit
• The Electrostatic Beam Blanker
• The Keithley picoamper meter
• The Picoamper meter Switch Box
• The Mains Matching and Isolation Transformer provides a
galvanic isolated AC-regulated power source with the 115 / 230 V,
50 / 60 Hz output.
• The CryoCleanerEC + spare vessel – anti-contamination device
• The Plasma Cleaner – the sample / chamber plasma cleaning
device
• The Video Hard Copy Unit
• 5 paper rolls for video hard copy unit
• The WetSTEM detector enables in connection with the Cooling
Stage to observe wet samples in a STEM mode.
• The Gaseous Back-Scatter Electron Detector (GBSD) allows
BSE imaging in ESEM™ mode, i.e. at a high chamber pressure (it
uses a gas amplification to compensate a signal loss). Other back-
scattered electron detectors (solid-state or scintillate-type BSE
detectors) typically work with a pressure up to 100 Pa, but tend to
get very noisy at this condition.
