MIRA3 LM - High Resolution Schottky FEG SEM

MIRA3 LM

The Most Important Features of the MIRA3 LM

High Performance FESEM

  • A high brightness Schottky emitter for high-resolution/ high-current/low-noise imaging
  • A powerful In-Beam Detector for high resolution imaging especially at low accelerating voltages optionally available

Modern Electron Optics

  • A unique three-lens Wide Field Optics design offers a variety of working and displaying modes.
  • The proprietary Intermediate Lens (IML) that works as an „Aperture Changer“ makes the exchange of the effective final aperture in an electromagnetic way.
  • The column construction, without any mechanical centering elements, allows fully automated column set-up and alignment
  • Real time In-Flight Beam Tracing™  for the performance and beam optimization integrating the well established software Electron Optical Design. It includes also direct and continual control of beam spot size and beam current
  • Unique live stereoscopic imaging an 3D surface reconstruction utilizing the 3D Beam technology
  • Fast imaging rate up to 20 ns/pixel

Analytical Potential

  • A large chamber with 5 axes motorized compucentric stage
  • Fast imaging rates due to first class YAG-based detectors
  • 11+ chamber interface ports with optimized geometry for EDX, WDX, EBSD
  • Integrated pneumatic or optional active vibration isolation for ambient vibration reduction

Automated Analysis

  • The fast and accurate computer controlled stage is suitable for different applications in automated analysis 
  • Communication with external software or  third party products via TCP/IP interface (e.g. automated EDX analysis)
  • High-throughput large-area automation, e.g. automated particle location and analysis

Sophisticated Control

  • A fully automated microscope set-up including electron optics set-up and alignment
  • Sophisticated software for SEM control, image acquisition, archiving, processing and analysis
  • Multi-user environment localized in many languages
  • Three levels of user expertise, including an EasySEM mode for inexperienced users
  • Built-in image management and report creation
  • Network operations and built-in remote access/diagnostics
  • System built in self-diagnostics

TIMA


The TESCAN Integrated Mineral Analyzer (TIMA) is a new SEM-based automated mineralogy solution for the mining and minerals processing industries. TIMA measures mineral abundance, size by size liberation, mineral association, grain size and PGM search automatically on multiple samples of grain mounts, thin sections or polished sections. Applications include ore characterization, process optimization, remediation and the search for precious metals and rare earths.
