SEM training for laboratories

Your teams need training in the SEM technique...

What is the principle of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)?

SEM training, yes but first of all, what is SEM? Scanning Electron Microscopy SEM-EDX is a technique for microscopic analysis in the laboratory. SEM uses a field effect gun. With this technique, the image production is done in very high resolution of the surface of a sample (magnification of the order of *1000000).

Then, the SEM is equipped with several technical features such as :

  • The very precise study of different surfaces thanks to an ultra high-definition image resolution
  • A variable pressure mode (VP) for insulating samples for non-destructive analysis on all types of materials (without metallization)
  • A sensitive and fast 80 mm² energy dispersive microprobe (EDS) for semi-quantitative chemical analysis and mapping including
  • An In-Lens detector for very high resolution images of the order of 1 nm with acceleration voltages of about 1 kV
  • A transfer lock allowing to introduce quickly and cleanly “large size” samples

Why train in SEM?

The applications of SEM analysis are multiple…you will be able to : 

  • Carry out a failure assessment 

  • Characterizing nanomaterials

  • Identify particles, contaminants and deposits

  • Analyze surfaces

FILAB SEM training...

You have just acquired a SEM in your laboratory? The competent person(s) are no longer part of your team? Do you want to improve your expertise in SEM analysis and the exploitation of results?

As an accredited training organization, FILAB supports your teams in the use of the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis technique, regardless of your sector of activity.

This technique has many applications, particularly in the fields of fine chemistry and surface treatment, pharmaceuticals, transportation (automotive, aeronautics), luxury goods, cosmetics, medical, etc.

As FILAB has been providing training to its customers for more than 10 years, we are able to offer a tailor-made solution to your industrial problems or analytical challenges.
