CleanMill Broad Ion Beam System features
High-energy ion source
The ultra-high-energy ion gun features a maximum accelerating voltage of 16 kV to rapidly mill and polish sample surfaces.
Ultra-fine surface polishing
The CleanMill System can be configured with an optional low-energy io n gun for final polishing of sample surfaces.
Wide acceleration voltage
The system delivers ion energy ranging from 2 kV to 16 kV and features dedicated optics for ultra-low-voltage polishing from 100 V to 2 kV.
CleanConnect System compatibility
Safely transfer samples from the CleanMill System to the microscope chamber using the Thermo Scientific IGST (inert gas sample transfer) Workflow to observe materials in their native states.
Real-time monitoring
The integrated touchscreen and high-resolution camera help you keep track of the broad ion beam milling process.
Cryogenic milling
The optional cryo-stage delivers LN2 cooling with automatic refilling for working with extremely beam-sensitive materials.
