SEM options include:
The Zeiss Crossbeam 550 FIB-SEM is our swiss-army knife FIB-SEM; perfect for high-resolution SEM imaging.
and
The Hitachi TM-4000 tabletop SEM is perfect for most powders and low conductivity samples, as well as, plastic products, food products, and environmental specimens. The TM-4000 tabletop microscope is a low-vacuum SEM with a thermal electron gun that retains the key strengths of their predecessors in the TM1000 series while boasting smaller instrument footprints and improved ease of use, making SEM observations easy even for users who have never before worked with an electron microscope.
