Highlights from the 4th Tescan Collaboration Network Meeting

Tescan Spectral CT in Electronics and Semiconductors

Non-destructive spectral imaging for material verification and internal inspection of advanced electronic assemblies.

TrueContrast™ multi-energy imaging for differentiating polymers, metals, and encapsulants

K-edge detection for accurate identification of high-Z elements
Non-destructive visualization of interfaces and buried defects in electronic packages
Spectrum comparison tools for verifying material uniformity and contamination sources

Tescan Spectral CT delivers compositional insight where conventional micro-CT cannot. Engineers can distinguish packaging materials, solder alloys, and internal structures without sectioning or coating—supporting reliable failure analysis, design validation, and quality assurance across next-generation electronic devices.

Tescan Spectral CT in Materials Science

Multi-energy micro-CT for elemental and structural differentiation in complex, multi-phase materials.

Elemental mapping for identifying fillers, dopants, or additives in polymer composites
Spectral contrast for distinguishing polymers, ceramics, and metals with similar densities
Non-destructive 3D analysis of internal interfaces and phase boundaries
Integrated Spectral Suite for correlating elemental and structural data in one workflow

In materials research, Spectral CT enables scientists to explore the relationship between structure and composition without destroying samples. Researchers can visualize distribution of additives, analyze composite uniformity, and study degradation pathways—supporting more reliable material design and performance assessment.

Tescan Spectral CT in Geoscience and Mining

Full-spectrum micro-CT for 3D elemental and structural insight into geological samples.

Non-destructive 3D elemental mapping of rocks, ores, and mineral inclusions
K-edge detection for locating and identifying high-value or trace elements like gold or rare earth elements
Enhanced contrast for complex mineral assemblages and pore networks
Large-volume spectral scanning for full-core or fragment-scale analysis

For geoscientists and mining professionals, Spectral CT provides simultaneous elemental and structural data from intact samples. It supports mineral identification, ore classification, and recovery assessment—reducing dependency on destructive assays while preserving geological material for further study.

TESCAN SPECTRAL SUITE

INTEGRATION THAT DRIVES INSIGHT

Tescan Spectral CT works seamlessly with SPECTRAL Suite and Acquila™ micro-CT control software to streamline spectral imaging from acquisition to analysis. Used as an add-on with the UniTOM XL platform, users can target volumes of interest, capture full-spectrum data, and visualize structural and elemental information in one workflow.

Researchers benefit from intuitive controls, guided reconstruction, and automated spectral processing. Spectral Suite handles spectrum matching, K-edge detection, and compositional mapping with minimal setup. This delivers consistent, reproducible results across samples and accelerates multi-energy micro-CT analysis.
