FIB - FEI Helios NanoLab 600i dual beam FIB/SEM - Status: Down
|
The FEI Helios NanoLab 600i DualBeam system integrates focused ion and scanning electron beams for FIB and SEM functionality in one instrument.
Instrument Specifications: YouTube video demonstrating what is covered in basic training of the Helios YouTube video tutorial on use of the Helios to prepare lamellas Zoom workshop on dual beam FIB/SEM tips, tricks, and other useful info (recorded 11/19/21) TRAINING REQUIREMENTS: 1. Please create an RSC user account with a PI-approved funding source. 2. Please complete RSC general safety training. 3. Please complete the Radiation Safety Short Course AND obtain a dosimeter badge (regardless if you are working with radioactive or non-radioactive materials). 4. Please complete the FIB Knowledge Training course through eLearning; submit a training request using the "Training" link at the bottom of the page and follow the instructions to be added to the course; you must complete this course regardless of any prior coursework or operational experience related to SEM or FIB you may have. Latest Status Log EntryFeb 10, 2023 - User Note: IGP2 (gun) kicked off yesterday around 3 pm; unable to recover gun vacuum upon restarting IGP2 (overflow); mid E column IGP1 was still off (was left off) with bypass valve open for turbo to pump on it; still unable to recover mid E column vacuum when IGP 1 turned back on (overflow); E-column vacuum cannot be recovered without a bakeout. |
