Auto Slice & View Software for FIB tomography
Thermo Scientific Auto Slice & View 5 (AS&V5) Software allows for automated acquisition of high-resolution 3D images and analytical maps such as EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction) or EDS (energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy). AS&V5 Software acquires data by milling serial sections (slices) of a sample with a focused ion beam (FIB) and then imaging and/or mapping each slice. Due to the high value and unique nature of many samples, it is important to collect as much information as possible from each section. AS&V5 Software allows you to acquire multiple imaging and analysis modalities for every slice, including information such as material and channeling contrast generated by multiple SEM and FIB detectors. Additionally, elemental information can be collected with EDS, and grain orientation/strain-texture analysis can be provided by EBSD mapping.
Spin Mill functionality
Spin Mill Science is an add-on for Auto Slice & View 5 Software that enables site-specific large area polishing and 3D characterization. Available on PFIBs and Hydra DualBeams, this software automates sequential milling and imaging of areas up to 1 mm.

Cryo-Tomography
Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) delivers both structural information about individual proteins as well as their spatial arrangements within the cell. This makes it a truly unique technique and also explains why the method has such an enormous potential for cell biology. Cryo-ET can bridge the gap between light microscopy and near-atomic-resolution techniques like single-particle analysis.
3D Materials Characterization
Development of materials often requires multi-scale 3D characterization. DualBeam instruments enable serial sectioning of large volumes and subsequent SEM imaging at nanometer scale, which can be processed into high-quality 3D reconstructions of the sample.
Cross-sectioning
Cross sectioning provides extra insight by revealing sub-surface information. DualBeam instruments feature superior focused ion beam columns for high-quality cross sectioning. With automation, unattended high-throughput processing of samples is possible.
In Situ experimentation
Direct, real-time observation of microstructural changes with electron microscopy is necessary to understand the underlying principles of dynamic processes such as recrystallization, grain growth, and phase transformation during heating, cooling, and wetting.
Multi-scale analysis
Novel materials must be analyzed at ever higher resolution while retaining the larger context of the sample. Multi-scale analysis allows for the correlation of various imaging tools and modalities such as X-ray microCT, DualBeam, Laser PFIB, SEM and TEM.
