📋 Tender Overview
Contract awarded for Plasma fib/sem for room-temperature and cryogenic applications lot-0000, title: plasma fib/sem for room-temperature and cryogenic applications, description: the new device consisting of a scanning electron microscope and a beam source with focused plasma ion beam is intended for use in both low-temperature applications (frozen biological tissue and sensitive samples such as battery materials) and at room temperature (all types of solid materials). therefore, the device must be compatible with both room temperature and cryogenic conditions, as well as allow for the transfer of materials under inert gas/vacuum conditions. the main applications include the production of thin lamellae for examination in transmission electron microscopy and the production of cylindrical samples for examination using x-ray radiation in synchrotron. other important applications are the examination of material surfaces (including cross-sections made with the ion beam), the production of 3d fib tomograms, and prototyping. the capabilities of the device are also to be complemented by a fluorescence light microscope and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. estimated value excluding vat: 1991582.51 eur.Plasma fib/sem for room-temperature and cryogenic applications
