Throughput and area
- Vector’s measurement throughput is thousands of times that of traditional SPM with no loss of resolution.
- Provides unrivalled precision dimensional data that other EM systems cannot.
- Enables unprecedented statistical confidence with no need to average or assume homogeneity of the sample.
Workflow Integration
- Vector seamlessly fits into existing processes to start adding value immediately with simple features such as the ability to use standard SEM sample mounts.
- Removes operator expertise dependencies usually associated with commercial nanoscale measurement tools through automated instrument calibration, measurement and data analysis.
- Delivers extended lifespan of probe, repeatability and consistency of results across many hours of continuous imaging via Vector‘s unique passive mechanical feedback loop.
Automated Measurement
- Automatic data capture to a bespoke grid pattern to fit your sample.
- Automated Measurement of all nanostructures, analysed in height, shape, hardness and location within the sample, providing a spatial distribution of the structures relative to the optical image.
- Enables correlative measurements as sample can be loaded into additional instrument for further data to be taken on specific elements.
- Frame-by-frame software enables extraction of statistics a frame at a time providing insights into the evolution of the surfaces and structures.
Video-Rate Imaging
- Video-rate imaging at the nanoscale, and automated characterisation of the occurring changes. These can be seen and tracked in real-time unlike any other form of nanoscale measurement tool/instrument.
- Images at higher rates and with greater resolutions, working in ambient, liquid, and vacuum environments, including in conditions that would prevent imaging for fast tapping SPMs.
- Zero sample degradation through imaging.
