2 Safety
This chapter contains general requirements for safe working practices. Any person using the Mi-
croscope System or commissioned with installation or maintenance must read and observe these
general safety instructions. Knowledge on basic safety instructions and requirements is a precon-
dition for safe and fault-free operation. Operational safety of the supplied Microscope System is
only ensured if it is operated according to its intended use.
If any work is associated with residual risks, this is mentioned in the relevant parts of this docu-
ment in a specific note. When components must be handled with special caution, they are
marked with a warning label. These warnings must always be observed.
2.1 Intended Use
The microscope has been designed to generate an image or to analyze appropriate specimens,
which is achieved by scanning a focused electron or ion beam across the specimen.
In addition to microscopic examination, the microscope also allows for the modification of appro-
priate specimens. For these purposes, the specimen is placed in the evacuated specimen chamber.
The microscope has been designed for the following applications:
§
Imaging
Image generation and specimen analysis can be performed by means of a focused electron
beam (SEM Imaging) or a focused ion beam (FIB Imaging) that is scanned across the speci-
men.
This application allows for the analysis of surface structures and near-surface structures of ap-
propriate specimens.
§
Milling
Milling comprises all applications that include material removal from the specimen surface by
a focused ion beam.
In combination with a gas injection system option, the microscope has been designed for the fol-
lowing applications:
§
Gas-assisted deposition
A process gas in combination with either a focused electron beam or a focused ion beam can
be used to deposit material onto the specimen surface.
§
Gas-assisted etching
This application enables an accelerated material removal by a focused electron beam or a fo-
cused ion beam in combination with a process gas.

SmartSEM Software
The SmartSEM software is intended for the operation of scanning electron microscopes (SEMs).
The SmartSEM software has to be run exclusively on a personal computer delivered by ZEISS. Any
other applications are not allowed.
Regarding the operation of the microscope, the following regulations must be met:
§
Only operate the microscope according to the operating conditions after correct installation
by a ZEISS service representative.
