1. Schottky field emission electron gun. 2. Ion source lifetime: ≥1000 hours. 3. Ion beam current: 1.5 pA - 65nA, adjustable in no less than 15 steps. 4. Completely oil-free vacuum system. 5. Rotatable cold stage. 6. Tilt angle range in freezing state: -15°-+55°. 7. Cryo-nano manipulator. 8. With iFLM. 9. Integrated IR camera for sample and chamber observation.  10. Pt deposition protection layer design, which can protect the layer of shear thin sections to be treated from being damaged by the ion beam. 11. Sputter coating, which is to conductivize the shear thin sections under freezing.

Samples sent for testing should be non-infectious frozen samples.

It is mainly used for ion beam thinning and scanning imaging of in situ cellular and tissue samples, and also for 3D reconstruction imaging of frozen samples.
