Carl Zeiss: 1st European CrossBeam and Helium Ion Microscope User Workshop Attracts Over 150 Scientists

Peabody, MA | Posted on April 30th, 2009

Following a presentation of the new AURIGA CrossBeam workstation (FIB-SEM) and its huge application potential, users presented deep insight in their current research and development work carried out with CrossBeam systems from Carl Zeiss. Topics ranged from applications in Semiconductor Technology to material analysis, thin-film based solar cells as well as fabrication of micro- and nanodevices for biomedicine.

A most eagerly anticipated session was dedicated to the ORION Helium-Ion microscope. "The presentations from Conny Rodenberg of University of Sheffield and Frank Altmann from the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials (Halle) made clear the unique potential of this exciting technology", explained Gerd Maußner, from Areva NP GmbH (Germany), one of the participants of the meeting.

At the Leibniz-Institute of Polymer Research, which also acted as "co-Host" of the workshop, and at the Carl Zeiss Innovation Center, product demos completed this successful user meeting.
