摘要
We outline a public license (open source) electron microscopy platform, referred to as NanoMi. NanoMi offers a modular, flexible electron microscope platform that can be utilized for a variety of applications, such as mi-croscopy education and development of proof-of-principle experiments, and can be used to complement an existing experimental apparatus. All components are ultra-high vacuum compatible and the electron optics el-ements are independent from the vacuum envelope. The individual optical components are mounted on a 127 mm (5-inch) diameter half-pipe, allowing customizing of electron optics for a variety of purposes. The target capabilities include SEM, TEM, scanning TEM (STEM), and electron diffraction (ED) at up to 50 keV incident electron energy. The intended image resolution in SEM, TEM and STEM modes is approximate to 10 nm. We describe the existing components and the interfaces among components that ensure their compatibility and interchange-ability. The paper provides a resource for those who consider building or utilizing their own NanoMi.
