microPREP® PRO FEMTO

Laser Focus World Innovator Awards Bronze

In 2024 microPREP PRO FEMTO received the Laser Focus World Innovation Award

The microPREP PRO FEMTO is your tool for laser-based sample preparation – especially when preparing atom probe tips (APT) for further analysis.

Its femtosecond laser source and optimized optical setup enable fast material removal with nanometer precision. microPREP PRO FEMTO can prepare APT microtip coupons directly from the sample material with automated workflows.

microPREP PRO FEMTO can ablate metals, semiconductors, ceramics, polymers, and compound materials. It creates new vistas for material and process development and failure analysis.

The femtosecond laser source is the main component of the microPREP PRO FEMTO system. This ultrashort pulsed laser source and an optimized optical setup enable fast material removal with nanometer precision. microPREP PRO FEMTO’s excellent positioning system with piezo actuators and two cameras allows the user to bring specimens straightforwardly into the ultra-precise position for the desired preparation task.
microPREP PRO FEMTO can prepare APT microtip coupons directly from the sample material with automated workflows.

With the microPREP PRO FEMTO laser-based sample preparation system, your lab benefits from the following advantages:

  • Free-form sample preparation
  • Preparation of APT microtip coupons directly from the sample
  • Samples with micron-level precision
  • Sophisticated workflows for automated tasks
