NANOS: A Cutting-Edge Tabletop SEM

The NANOS delivers integrated energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) for quick elemental analysis together with high-quality SEM imaging at a low total cost of ownership. It is made to be simple to install, operate, and maintain.

Making SEM Accessible for Anyone, Everywhere

The NANOS is a versatile and reasonably priced tabletop scanning electron microscope (SEM). It is designed with cutting-edge technology to provide rapid and high-quality SEM images and elemental analysis. Its durable and contemporary design makes it ideal for research and development, educational and industrial applications.

Configuration: TheNANOSis delivered with BSD, SED, integrated EDS, and a Eucentric tilt stage.

Cost of ownership: The NANOS has been fabricated to keep the ownership cost lower than any benchtop SEM currently available.

Design: TheNANOShas a robust modern design andis engineered using the latest materials and components.

Ease of use: In BASIC mode, the NANOS will produce outcomes in a short period of time, irrespective of experience. ADVANCED mode offers additional functionality for elaborate analysis.

Robust: With outstanding stability and a compact footprint, the architecture of the NANOS ensures it can be used in non-laboratory environments.

Servicing: The NANOS design enables simple access for maintenance and upgrades, which could be completed at the user’s premises.

Eucentric Stage

The Eucentric Stage seamlessly incorporated within the NANOS represents a truly unique feature that comes standard with each unit. It allows for smooth motorized XY movements, effortlessly manageable through the User Interface.

When in SEM mode, adjusting the specimen's tilt is a straightforward manual operation of the stage. This eucentric design ensures that the sample remains in focus, removing the requirement for interim adjustments in SEM settings. The User Interface accurately indicates the tilt angle, allowing samples to be tilted at angles of up to 55 degrees.

Elemental Analysis

The Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) is fully incorporated into the NANOS. The operator can choose EDX Point Analysis or activate Elemental Mapping using the User Interface.

Electron Detectors

Both a Secondary Electron Detector (SED) and a Back Scattered Electron Detector (BSD) are included with the NANOS as standard.

The BSD is a 4-quadrant detector with entirely independent portions that are configurable.It offers topographical or compositional detail from the sample, as well as images with a “shading effect” by highlighting the surface from several directions.
