EMS MATERIALS SCIENCE & METROLOGY CATALOG 2019–20 EDITION INSTRUMENTATION
XTEM TEM Sample Preparation Kit
EMS offers this kit specifically for the preparation of cross-sectional TEM (XTEM) specimens.
For the study of interfaces (such as semiconductor devices, thin film layers, etc.) by transmission electron microscope (TEM) it is critical to use TEM samples of ultimate quality (perfectly embedded, mechanically pretreated and ion milled ones). EMS offers a complete technology and product range for preparing cross-sectional samples of these quality including specially designed mechanical sample preparation tools and embedding ring. The EMS- XTEMprep Preparation Kit offers all the tools and materials that help to prepare high-quality cross- sectional TEM specimens:
THE KIT INCLUDES:
Microsaw sectioning tool Micropol grinder and polisher Microheat embedding tool Embedding rings (“Ti disc”) – 5 of each size Ion beam resistant glue
Special purpose mechanical tools (HSS) for embedding
LEIT-C conductive carbon cement Thermoplastic transparent glue Diamond paste
MicroSaw – Model MS 3
A Circular Diamond Saw for Precision Cutting under Stereo Microscope Application
MicroSaw is a small, versatile diamond wheel saw, to be mounted under a standard laboratory microscope. The precision offered by such an optical alignment makes MicroSaw ideal for cutting and sectioning required during the TEM specimen preparation. The compact design and easy operation, MicroSaw allows the user cut almost any solid material with precisely and reproducibly prior to thinning for TEM. Thin ceramic, semiconductor material, hard metals can be further sectioned with 0.01mm accuracy!
Operation
The Model MS3 MicroSaw is driven by an electric motor through a helical transmission. The 12V DC is provided by the power supply subunit. The speed at which the wheel turns is continuously adjustable. Adjustment of the specimen position, arm contact point, arm tension and the down-stop control mechanism is possible. Two adjustment screws at the bottom of the instrument allow positioning of the stand, and leveling the MicroSaw underneath of the stereomicroscopy for precision sectioning.

Replacement diamond wheel
Microheat is a heat stabilized small hot plate combined with power supply designed for embedding samples and for thermoplastic gluing under stereooptical microscope. The Microheat was developed to make the embedding procedure easier. Due to its small dimensions it can be easily placed on the specimen table of the stereooptical microscope and this way gluing faults can be avoided. This result is especially important in case of samples requiring bubble-free sticking (e.g. cross-sectional samples for electron microscopy).

The Model MH4 is relatively simple to operate. The temperature of the hot plate can be adjusted continuously in a wide range and is kept constant by the built-in electronic. A control circuit maintains the temperature of the heated surface within +5 degrees Celsius. The actual temperature is displayed on the top of the tool. The temperature of the heated surface usually reaches the preset temperature within 1-3 minutes.
