Maintenance of
FEI Helios FIB/SEM Dual Beam

1. Background:

1.1 Benet Labs' FEI Helios 600A Focused Ion Beam / Scanning Electron Microscope is a scientific instrument that combines the imaging capabilities of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with the micro-machining capabilities of a focused ion beam system (FIB). The dual-beam allows the Lab to characterize cutting edge materials, including nano-structured and non-metallic designs, composite structures, atomic-scale materials, and non-metallic coatings in-house. In order to maintain the quality, reliability, and accuracy of the instrument, periodic maintenance is required.
