SEM/TEM
SEM / TEM Shielded Facility
Astra Shield specializes in providing custom-engineered shielding solutions for Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) facilities. Our services aim to create exceptionally stable environments, free from electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is crucial for high-resolution imaging in advanced research and diagnostics.
Critical Need for Shielding:
Electron microscopes are highly sensitive to low-frequency magnetic fields and high-frequency electromagnetic noise. Even minor environmental fluctuations can degrade image clarity, compromise data, and reduce equipment effectiveness.
Comprehensive Shielding Solutions:
-
EMI Shielding: Full room shielding using conductive materials to block external RF and EMI sources.
-
Magnetic Shielding: Utilizes specialized alloys to suppress low-frequency magnetic fields from sources like elevators, power lines, and transformers.
-
Structural Design Compatibility: Custom shielding is integrated seamlessly with existing room construction, maintaining aesthetics and utility access.
-
Precision Testing & Certification: On-site field testing ensures attenuation performance meets international standards for microscopy labs.
-
Optional Enhancements: Vibration isolation, acoustic shielding, and temperature/humidity stabilization.
Applications Served:
Research laboratories, nanotechnology centres, universities, academic institutions, semiconductor and electronics labs, and forensic & biomedical imaging centres.
Benefits of Astra Shield:
Proven experience, collaboration with microscope vendors and lab planners, turnkey delivery (design, supply, install, validate), and compliance with vendor recommendations (Thermo Fisher Scientific, JEOL Ltd , Hitachi High-Tech Corporation, Carl Zeiss AG , Tescan).
