Confocal microscopy is an optical imaging technique that uses point-by-point illumination and spatial pinhole modulation to remove scattered light from the non-focal plane of the sample, allowing for improved optical resolution and visual contrast compared to traditional imaging methods. CD BioSciences, the imaging experts, can provide you with Zeiss EVO 60 ESEM-based confocal microscopy imaging services.
1. EVO 60 Technical Specifications
The resolving power of the EVO 60 is 50 nm and the machine is fitted with a LaB6 crystal filament. The LaB6 provides a brighter image with a higher resolution than commonly used Tungsten filaments. With the benefit of a large sample chamber, the Evo 60 could accomadate samples on the order of size of a basketball (38.5 cm in diameter and 37.5 cm in height).
2. Backscatter Electron Detector
This system also comes with a removable backscatter electron detector (BSD) in addition to the standard secondary electron detector (SE) used in HV and the variable pressure detector (VPSE) used in EP. The BSD is sensitive to slight energy variations occurring when a high energy electron scatters off the nucleus of an atom. This sensitivity allows the BSD to map out variations in the densities of the sample. On account of the silicone wafer being divided in to four regions allowing it intrinsic investigative properties, the detector type is known as a "Quad. "
The Zeiss EVO 60 is an environmental scanning electron microscope (EP-SEM). In addition to the standard high vacuum (HV) operating mode, the EVO 60 is capable of operating in extended pressure mode (EP). While operating in extended pressure the EVO 60 is capable of viewing specimens that have not undergone the traditional drying and coating preparations. Using small quantities of filtered air and water, the EVO 60 creates a non-destructive coating across the sample preventing charge from building. The EVO 60 also comes equipped with a removable hot/cold stage. When used in combination with the EP mode, the hot/cold stage allows for wet samples to be viewed under the electron beam. Accompanying the EVO 60 are a back scatter detector, energy dispersive x-ray spectrographic detector, and electron back scattered diffraction detector.
