High-resolution observation and analysis of samples |

+33 5 62 88 90 35Scanning electron microscopes are used to view the surface of various samples and to observe details on a nanometer scale. Moreover, control of the pressure in the microscope chamber and the cryo-preparation module offers the ability to observe dry, hydrated or frozen samples. Among the many possibilities offered by this resource, cryo-fracture can be used to observe the interior of samples and X analysis can determine and quantify the atomic species present on its surface.
