Nb5000 fib sem

Manufactured by Hitachi

The NB5000 FIB-SEM is a focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM) system designed for high-resolution imaging and precise sample preparation. It combines a Ga ion beam for milling and a scanning electron beam for imaging, allowing users to visualize and modify samples at the nanoscale level.

TEM specimens less than 100 nm-thick were prepared using a Hitachi NB5000 FIB-SEM via a standard in situ lift-out method, which was followed by low-kV argon ion-milling using a Fischione 1040 Nanomill. An FEI Tecnai T20 TEM operated at 200 kV was used for BF-TEM imaging and SAD observations. STEM-EDS spectrum images were acquired using a Hitachi HF3300 TEM-STEM equipped with a Bruker X-Flash silicon drift detector EDS system and operated at 300 kV.

Fabrication of Customized AFM Probes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Standard AFM probe tips (MLCT-D, Bruker) were modified with a FIB scanning electron microscope (SEM) dual-beam system (Hitachi NB5000 FIB-SEM). Individual cantilevers were mounted on the SEM stage with the tips facing upward. The AFM pyramidal tips were then milled into a long cylindrical shape by dual-ion beams (beam 25-1-80). The milling process was monitored under SEM imaging. The process lasts approximately 10 min per probe. The resulting tips were 150 to 250 nm in diameter and 3 to 5 μm in length.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
