JSM 6400

The scanning electron microscope JSM 6400 is especially suitable for the observation of the surface of materials (geological, chemical-physical, etc...) and biological samples, with the possibility of performing semi-quantitative analysis to obtain a compositional approximation of the materials. The distribution of elements and phases can be obtained through the use of backscattered electrons in the study of materials.
