an EDS-EBSD detectors and software for FEI Helios G4 CX (FIB-SEM) instrument for the University of Limerick

Description

Overview. A set of detectors for energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is to be installed on a FEI Helios G4 CX (FIB-SEM) instrument. Detectors have to be supplied and installed with all necessary hardware and software for proper integration with FEI software. This specification describes the minimum technical requirements and acceptable performance standards for both detectors for the analysis of a broad range of materials in support of research within the Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick (UL), Ireland. The EDS and EBSD detectors will be installed by the contractor at the Bernal Institute on the FEI Helios G4 CX instrument. This system will be used by Bernal Institute personnel to analyse the samples provided by research groups from UL and other Universities as well as external industrial customers. The instrument will be placed in a multiple user facility and must provide ease of safe operation to those in the facility.
