Tabletop SEM, SEM/FIB, S/TEM
In Situ Laser Heating
Heat a selected region, watch the material respond, then move to the next site without treating the whole sample as the furnace.
Explore In Situ Laser HeatingApplications
Photons add new ways to heat, excite, and collect signals inside the electron microscope. Start with the experiment, then match the Waviks system to the microscope, sample, and signal.
Application Routes
Choose what you want to measure or stimulate, then explore the relevant experiments and Waviks systems.
Tabletop SEM, SEM/FIB, S/TEM
Heat a selected region, watch the material respond, then move to the next site without treating the whole sample as the furnace.
Explore In Situ Laser Heating
SEM, FIB, PFIB, helium ion platforms
Use light with beam-based processing for deposition, purification, etching, damage mitigation, and graphene patterning examples.
Explore Laser-Assisted Nanofabrication
Tabletop SEM, SEM/FIB
Add Raman identification to the same site you are imaging, without moving the sample to a separate benchtop microscope.
Explore Raman Spectroscopy in Electron Microscopy
Tabletop SEM, SEM/FIB
Collect emitted light and compare optical response with the electron image in the same session.
Explore Cathodoluminescence and Photoluminescence
S/TEM
Use optical stimulation with S/TEM electron spectroscopy for gain-side and loss-side research examples.
Explore Stimulated EELS and EEGS
Tabletop SEM, SEM/FIB, S/TEM, custom vacuum systems
Bring a controlled optical stimulus into the microscope while your instrument and detectors provide the measurement.
Explore Optical Excitation
SEM/FIB, Tabletop SEM, selected S/TEM or custom systems
Measure electron-beam-induced current from contacted samples and relate electrical response to image features.
Explore EBIC and Electrical Characterization
Custom vacuum chambers and research instruments
Start with the access problem: light in, signal out, motion, electrical path, and Aether-controlled hardware.
Explore Experiments in Custom Vacuum SystemsPublished Examples
A TEM study of laser-heated Ag-Ni films reported recrystallization, grain growth, phase separation, and dewetting. Thermal simulations helped interpret the observed changes.
A study paired continuous-wave laser excitation with electron spectroscopy to measure energy gain and loss from individual plasmonic nanoparticles under the reported conditions.
A laser-assisted deposition study reported improved conductivity in suspended platinum-carbon nanowires, illustrating how optical stimulation can change deposit properties.
