====== SEM-FEG Zeiss SUPRA™ 40 ======

The scanning electron microscopy technique is versatile and non-destructive, it reveals the morphology
and the composition of a lot of materials. 
The ZEISS SUPRA™ 40 is a SEM-FEG capable of high quality semples imaging.
Perfect for investigateing nanosystems, it offers high stability and a large (130 mm) versatile specimen holder. 
Meanwhile, the GEMINI FESEM column utilised on the SUPRA™ 40 has an extremely low magnetic field
outside the objective lens enabling investigation of magnetic materials and devices. 
A field-emission cathode in the electron gun provides improved spatial resolution and minimized sample charging/damage.
