Overview

Our three Nikon Metrology systems are best suited for larger samples, from a few mm diameter to approximately 20 cm diameter. With their high-power 225 kV and 320 kV x-ray sources, they can achieve transmission of sample up to approximately 30 mm steel. Our two walk-in bay systems are additionally well suited for in-situ work, using one of our in-situ rigs.

Nikon Metrology “High Flux” bay. With the large 4000 x 4000 pixel detector, the bay can achieve high quality images. Three alternative sources can be used: a 225 kV, 450 W rotating reflection target for higher flux, a standard 225 kV, 225 W static reflection target, and a 160kV transmission target for higher resolution (up to 3 µm). The Bay is designed for in-situ work and can take the majority of our in-situ rigs.
