Platform PFIB - Multi-Modal Microscope Analytical System and Scios EDS detector upgrade

A Helios 5 Hydra CX Plasma Focussed Ion Beam (PFIB) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) has recently been ordered, which was specially configured for studying bulk battery materials and their key performance controlling interfaces which are often buried. As part of this configuration, an analytical system consisting of an Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS) and an Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) detector are required and this is the basis of this Lot.In order to express interest in this opportunity please go to the University of Warwick In-Tend supplier portal (in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofwarwick)… ↗ University of Warwick is not a contracting authority for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) and its procurement activities are not subject to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or the obligations under the European Public Procurement Directives, including the European Remedies Directive.

Our Scios Dual beam (Thermo Fisher Scientific) is currently fitted with a 7 year old XMaxN 150 SDD EDS detector from Oxford Instruments. This system runs the latest version of Aztec and works with the ASV4 3D acquisition software (Thermo Fisher Scientific). We require a system that does not lose any of the current capabilities but has the higher speed pulse processing capabilities of modern EDS detectors.In order to express interest in this opportunity please go to the University of Warwick In-Tend supplier portal (in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofwarwick)… ↗ University of Warwick is not a contracting authority for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) and its procurement activities are not subject to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or the obligations under the European Public Procurement Directives, including the European Remedies Directive.
