About the CIQTEK FIB-SEM DB550

The CIQTEK FIB-SEM DB550 represents a significant advancement in electron microscopy, specifically designed to meet the needs of researchers and engineers working in semiconductor failure analysis, nanotechnology imaging, and materials science.

Traditional scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) provide detailed surface imaging, but they often lack the ability to perform precise sample modifications. This is where the FIB-SEM system excels. By integrating a Focused Ion Beam with an electron microscope, users gain the ability to perform high-resolution imaging, cross-section analysis, and precise material modifications, making it an essential tool in cutting-edge research and industry applications.

One of the most significant challenges in semiconductor research and materials science is obtaining clear, high-resolution images of internal structures and the production of TEM cut-out lamella.

The CIQTEK FIB-SEM DB550 solves this by enabling delicate yet effective ion beam milling, allowing scientists to access internal structures and fabricate lamella with optimal results. This capability is essential for semiconductor companies, research institutions, and industries where high quality analysis is critical.

Equipped with advanced FIB-SEM nanofabrication tools, the DB550 enables modifications at the nanoscale, making it a valuable asset in applications such as circuit edit, defect analysis, and micro-device engineering. 

For laboratories and industrial users requiring reliable, high-quality results, the CIQTEK FIB-SEM DB550 offers a robust solution. Whether performing electron microscopy with ion beam integration or conducting semiconductor failure analysis, this machine ensures precision and efficiency in every task. Its versatility extends beyond basic imaging, offering advanced nanofabrication capabilities and facilitating research breakthroughs in materials science FIB-SEM applications.
