Large Geometry Ion Microprobe for Geosciences
The IMS 1300-HR³ is a large geometry ion microprobe delivering unequalled analytical performance for a wide range of geoscience applications: tracking geological processes using stable isotopes, dating minerals, determining the presence and distribution of trace elements. Its high sensitivity and high lateral resolution also make it the tool of choice to search and measure uranium particles for nuclear safeguards purposes.
A unique combination of High Reproducibility at High spatial Resolution and High mass Resolution
With the new IMS 1300-HR³, CAMECA greatly improves the performance of its large geometry SIMS, already a market leader, and now offers the geoscience community a unique combination of High Reproducibility at High spatial Resolution and High mass Resolution.The tool addresses the growing demand for small scale, in situ isotopic measurements at high precision and productivity, opening a wide range of research directions, from stable isotopes, geochronology and trace elements to small particles and beyond.
Key features inherited from the IMS 1280-HR and previous model:
Large geometry design to provide optimum sensitivity at high mass resolution
Versatile multicollector system for highest precision isotope measurements
Dual primary ion sources for analysis of positive & negative secondary ions
Superior ion imaging capabilities (microprobe and microscope modes)
Enhanced magnet control system for high reproducibility at high mass resolution
