Hitachi S4700 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope
Hitachi S-4700 is a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). More than a standard SEM, the S-4700, under optimal conditions, can magnify images upwards of 500,000 times and resolve features to 2 nanometers. In addition, a cathodoluminescence detector, backscatter electron detector and energy dispersive x-ray spectrographic detector accompany the microscope. [Product Link]
Reichert/Leica UltraCut S ultramicrotome is designed for extremely precise cutting, and achieves consistent high quality ultra thin sections for electron microscopy, or semi-thin sections for light microscopy. It features a continuous feed range from 0 to 2.5 microns and has adjustable cutting speeds of 0.1 to 50 mm/sec. It has a 6V, 10W halogen illumination system. [Product Link]
