- An independently moving mirror guaranteeing access to any region of interest of the sample
- A proprietary mirror with precise alignment for small pole piece gaps (down to 5 mm)
- A precise sub-micrometer alignment for a perfect adjustment of the mirror with respect to the sample
- A reduced working distance of 300 µm for highest efficiency
- A patented optical fiber preserving brightness and spectral resolution
- A <10 micron-sized beam for localized sample excitation
- The ability to perform simultaneous light injection and collection
Connect a Light Collection / Injection for STEM
The mirror operates independently of the sample holder, providing flexibility and ease of alignment with both the electron beam and the sample. This design also allows free sample displacement, enabling the scanning of larger surface areas.
The Mönch arm can be fully retracted from the sample area, making it compatible with virtually all standard STEM options, such as EDS, HAADF, and other detectors. It is also fully compatible with and complementary to EELS analysis.
Light collection is achieved through a patented asymmetric, broadband multicore fiber that preserves the field of view, collection efficiency, and spectral resolution.
The solution is delivered with software natively designed to support script commands, enabling user-defined automation.
