Advantages:
- Beam sensitive materials are stabilized under high beam currents
- Low-temperature phases can be studied
- Enhanced imaging and spectroscopy, especially for cathodoluminescence (CL)

Liquid nitrogen cooling stages C1001, C1002, C1003
- Simple installation/removal allows use of standard SEM stage
- Stages cooled to less than -185 °C by nitrogen gas
- Efficient thermal design ensures rapid cool down and stable temperatures
- Accurate control through integral heater and temperature sensor
- External liquid nitrogen heat exchanger removes vibration due to boiling of LN2
- Higher upper-temperature options for more flexibility in experiments
Liquid helium cooling stages CF302, CF302M
- Specially designed low drift and vibration, while minimizing liquid helium consumption
- Complete replacement SEM stage and door assembly with X, Y, Z axis manual micrometers
- CF302M is a helium-cooled stage module that attaches onto SEM goniometer, and requires more care than the CF302
- Complete system includes flexible transfer tube storage vessel, top fitting with bladder and valve, gas flow controller, gas flow pump, and digital temperature controller
- Optional radiation shield can be included depending on intended use and configuration
Dual fuel option
- Allows liquid helium cold stages to be operated with either helium or nitrogen
- Functions by forcing cold nitrogen gas through the circuit similar to the successful C1002 product
Accessories—Anti-contaminators
- Accessories include C1005, C1006, or C1007 anti-contaminators
