Ultra-thin Film Evaluation System HD-2300
H-7600

Hitachi would like to introduce you to a new 2nd generation ultra-thin film evaluation system, with improved functions and performance to enhance high-end imaging and analysis. Hitachi's reply to advanced high throughput tool requirements.

Features
  • Quick observation
    Specimen exchange: within 2 minutes
    High voltage application: 3 minutes (Standby condition to 200 kV on)

  • Automated column alignment
    Automation includes SE alignment, Stigmator alignment, and Bright area centering.

  • Automated image viewing functions
    Automation includes auto-focus, auto-stigmation, auto-brightness and contrast.

  • High resolution STEM and SEM images
    Guaranteed 0.204 nm resolution phase-contrast imaging.

  • Nano-area electron diffraction: Simultaneous display with STEM image
    Electron diffraction pattern images acquired from a 2 to 3 nm area
    while simultaneously viewing the Z-contrast image, aiding specific specimen orientation.

  • High sensitivity EDX analysis
    X-ray take-off angle: 20° or greater
    X-ray solid angle: 0.3 sr or greater

  • High speed and high sensitivity Hitachi EELS imaging system
    The ELV-2000 Elements View permits real-time elemental mapping (about 40 seconds,
    or 80 seconds/one element/one picture) of light elements(C/N/O, etc.)
    and transition elements (Cr/Fe/Co, etc.)
