The Scanning Probe Microscope (SPM) is an international surface analysis instrument developed in recent years, which is a high-tech product that integrates optical, mechanical, and electrical technology by using optoelectronics, laser technology, weak signal detection technology, applied optics technology, computer high-speed acquisition and control, and high-resolution graphics processing technology and other modern technological achievements. CD BioSciences offers FEI Scios Dualbeam FIBSEM-based scanning probe microscopy imaging services.

The Scios Ga ion column allows for accelerating voltages below 5kV, meaning that < 5 nm of damaged/implanted material is present on FIB lamella prepared for HRTEM. This, combined with the EZlift probe and STEM detector allow for extremely simple TEM lamella prep. The NiCol electron column allows for novel imaging modes (Optiplan, Optitilt and Analytical), which allows for enhanced contrast and resolution depending on the imaging required. This not only allows for excellent high-resolution imaging of magnetic samples, but also allows for improved contrast of biological samples when performing 'Auto Slice and View' to collect serial stack images for FIB-tomography. The large form chamber allows in situ experiments to easily take place, such as pico-indentation and heating using the Protochips Fusion SEM stage.
The areas of application of SPM are vast. Whether it is a basic discipline such as physics, chemistry, biology, or medicine, or an applied discipline such as materials or microelectronics, there is a place for it.
