Precision Patterning for Advanced Nanofabrication
Tescan Essence™ DrawBeam
Expandable software module for high-precision nanopatterning and nanofabrication applications
Designed for researchers shaping the nanoscale
Essence™ DrawBeam is an integrated modular patterning engine for Tescan FIB-SEM systems. It enables standard sample FIB processing workflows, such as cross-sectioning, as well as the development and application of advanced nanofabrication workflows, 3D structure creation. With a combination of the highest range of milling objects and layer based automation, it simplifies complex tasks such as preparation of special samples for mechanical testing or dedicated nano prototyped structures.
- Automate with precision: Batch processing, drift correction, and recipe control assure the best outcome from any sample.
- Design flexibly: Import CAD files and tailor parameters for any material, to obtain almost any structure or milled objects you need.
- Build complex structures: Create 3D nanopatterns using beam-induced deposition assisted by gas-injected precursors.
- Streamline your workflow: Work directly in the live FIB-SEM view with real-time overlay and control.
AI-powered automated workflow
The AI-driven automated lamella preparation reduces human error, shortens training time, and enables reliable unattended operation. The automation is realized through the TEM AutoPrep™ Pro software module and the OptiLift™ nanomanipulator, forming a fully integrated system that delivers fast lamella preparation while ensuring consistent quality.
Ultimate quality of TEM lamellae
A fully integrated Aura™ Gentle Ion Beam enables precise final polishing and gentle low-keV Ar⁺ cleaning of TEM lamellae directly inside the AMBER 2 FIB-SEM, minimizing amorphous damage and surface Ga+ contamination.
This built-in solution provides direct, real-time control over the polishing process, ensuring the highest sample quality and optimal results in TEM lamellae preparation, even for the most challenging materials.
