Re: [sudo-discuss] [CCL] Free Scanning Electron Microscope in Pleasanton! (was Fwd: [Microscopy] viaWWW:SMI3200 FIB system looking for a good home)

I would definitely be interested in any scouting expedition. Having access to an SEM is extremely enticing, but in addition to the space issue, there are some others: Power - does it want 240V or 3-phase? Does it expect a low vacuum connection along with its internal high vacuum systems? Maintaining the electronics is probably quite manageable, but I worry about the vacuum systems. Beam Services is a broker for lots of semiconductor equipment all over. It this unit really in Pleasanton? This sounds like a unit originally used for semiconductor work. What adaptations or additions would be required for more bio applications?

(was Fwd: [Microscopy] viaWWW:SMI3200 FIB system looking for a good home) Here's some images of the Seiko SMI 3200 Scanning Electron Microscope that is in need of a new home: http://www.beamservices.com/used-equipment.html http://www.caeonline.com/listing/product/9025735/seiko-smi-3200 Note that this is NOT a small system! It's not huge as SEM's go, but definitely not desktop - more like "small room sized". And it would obviously need some dedicated person to keep it in good running condition. It is however almost brand new, and currently *running*, at <5nm resolution! Beam Services Inc is down in Pleasanton, so I guess interested parties could potentially go and have a look at the system. This kind of equipment would be a significant commitment and investment in time and effort on our part, so let's coordinate on this shall we?
