Operation of 3D X-ray Microscope (Zeiss Xradias Versa 630)

The Zeiss Xradia 630 Versa is a non-destructive submicron 3D X-ray microscope. Its industry-leading resolution and contrast achieves spatial resolution of 0.7 μm and minimal achievable voxel of 70 nm. This system bridges the resolution gap between light and electron microscopes enabling easy, non-destructive 3D reconstructions of samples. It is equipped with:

  • Dual Scan Contrast Visualizer (DSCoVer), enabling compositional probing through overlay of imaging data of a single sample at two different X-ray spectra
  • High-Aspect Ratio Tomography (HART) for higher throughput imaging for flat samples like semiconductor packages and boards
  • Automated filter changer (AFC) for easy X-ray spectrum tuning
  • Wide field mode & vertical stitching for extended imaging of larger samples
  • Flat panel extension (FPX) to image significantly larger samples (beyond 5" diameter)
  • CT50000-TEC in-situ interface kit for heating, cooling, tension and compression stage
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE SIGNING UP FOR THE COURSE !
You must complete Princeton X-ray safety training at least three days prior to the training date to ensure IAC receives your X-ray safety badge by the time of the class. You cannot participate in training if we do not have your safety badge.
Once you sign up for an XRD training class, there will be a $15.00 annual fee for the maintenance of your personal dosimeter equipment. If you leave Princeton or do not need the badge anymore for some other reason, please inform us so that we can retire your badge.
