EBIC and Electrical Characterization

Measure electron-beam-induced current from contacted samples and compare electrical response with microscope image features.

SEM/FIB · Tabletop SEM · Selected S/TEM or Custom Systems

Signal pA to nA EBIC response
Amplifier Battery-powered TIA
Output SEM image input route
Fit Contact and feedthrough dependent

Why It Matters

See Electrical Microstructure, Not Just Surface Structure.

EBIC is useful when the sample can be contacted and the experiment needs spatial electrical response during electron-beam scanning. Waviks EBIC uses a dedicated signal path and standalone software; the sample contacts and microscope electrical access determine the installation.

What This Enables

Application Capabilities.

Electron-beam-induced current from contacted samples

Battery-powered transimpedance amplifier route

Packaged-device and probing-station discussions

SEM/FIB image correlation through compatible signal routing

Waviks EBIC Software: a standalone suite, separate from Aether

Custom holder and feedthrough review where needed

Platform Fit

Microscope Options

Final fit depends on microscope geometry, optical access, sample environment, safety requirements, and the measurement goal.

SEM/FIB Primary route
Tabletop SEM Reviewed per holder/contact geometry
S/TEM Configuration dependent
Custom Vacuum Reviewed per chamber
