Nikon Instruments Europe and Jeol have announced an agreement that appoints Nikon as the official European distributor of the Neoscope benchtop SEM (scanning electron microscope).
Whether used by trained electron microscopists as a compact screening instrument, or by lab technicians seeking a higher resolution alternative to the light microscope, the Neoscope can help accelerate the pace of research in all fields.
The Neoscope is suitable for use in the areas of sampling inspection, failure analysis of manufacturing materials, materials research, metallurgical laboratories, medical devices, forensics, bioscience research, pathology and environmental laboratories.
Bill Clement, industrial sales manager at Nikon Instruments, said: 'By offering the Neoscope together with Nikon's microscopes and digital cameras, we are able to offer a comprehensive range of imaging and inspection solutions from nano- to micro- to macro-features.' Nikon Instruments Europe will ensure that the customers of the Jeol Neoscope are supported by its extensive service and technical support network, offering full and extended warranty options.
The Neoscope can obtain images of high magnification, high resolution and large depth of field using a microscope that is as simple to operate as a digital camera, with the electron optics of an SEM.
A wide range of samples and materials can be loaded and imaged as required.
