Popis: | This paper describes the development of a new serial sectioning system that has been designed to collect microstructural, crystallographic, and chemical information from volumes in excess of 1 mm3. The system integrates a robotic multi-platen mechanical polishing system with a modern SEM that enables the acquisition of multi-modal data—scanning electron images, EBSD and hyperspectral EDS map—at each section. Selected details of the system construction as well as an initial demonstration of the system capabilities are presented. |
