Custom Standards

Tailored SEM/EDS sample solutions designed for specific research, calibration, quality-control and microanalysis workflows.

What can be customized

  • Element selection
  • Compounds
  • Minerals
  • Alloys
  • Tin sphere or Gold on Carbon resolution
  • Critical-dimension sample
  • Faraday Cup
  • Laser engraving
  • Aluminium pin stubs in different sizes or stainless-steel holders
  • Customer-supplied materials, when polishable and safe

Not every material can be embedded and polished successfully. Suitability depends on hardness, brittleness, chemical stability, particle size, vacuum compatibility and whether the material can survive preparation without smearing, cracking or reacting. If there is something you would like to embed in your sample, please contact us. We will be glad to help.
