Model: IB-19520CCP
Manufacturer: Jeol
Area: MiNaLab Corridor O2.1A

Instrument model:

 JEOL IB-19520CCP Cross Section Polisher.

Technology Description:

 The instrument is suitable for the preparation of pristine cross-sections of a specimen for analytical scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), or scanning probe microscopy (SPM). Cross-sections of layered materials, metals, ceramics, porous materials or even plastics and paper can be prepared with little roughness over a wide area (larger than 500μm). Thermal damage of heat-sensitive materials (e.g., low melting point metals and composite materials) can be reduced by cooling the specimen with liquid nitrogen during processing. A transfer vessel allows vacuum transfer of the polished sample to our JEOL IT-300 SEM without exposure to air.
