Measurement of Surface Roughness with SEM

Wednesday, August 5, 2026
1:30 PM (America/Chicago)
Room S202 A

In our talk, we present SEM as an effective method for surface roughness measurements, capable of characterizing samples across micro- to nanometer scales with higher lateral resolution than conventional optical techniques.

We demonstrate this by comparing SEM-measured roughness values against a commercial silicon roughness standard, using our point electronic BSE-topography system and MountainsMap software for ISO 25178-compliant analysis.

Advances in Quantitative STEM EBIC

Wednesday, August 5, 2026
2:15 PM (America/Chicago)
Room S 101 D

In our talk, we present advances in quantitative STEM EBIC (Electron Beam Induced Current) measurements, introducing a hardware calibration approach that directly converts raw image pixel values into physical current values in nA - without requiring recalibration when instrument settings change.

The method further provides a streamlined workflow for background removal and automated line profile fitting, enabling extraction of physical parameters such as the effective minority carrier diffusion length in semiconductor devices.

All calibration data is stored in the image file metadata, making the full quantitative workflow accessible online and offline without any additional coding.

Future-Proof your SEM: How Modernizations will give your SEM a second life

Wednesday, August 5, 2026
5:45 PM (America/Chicago)
at our point electronic booth 329

> Is your SEM column still going strong, but the electronics and software are outdated?

> Did you know that you can modernize your SEM with a modern, low-interference, high-speed electronics package and boost performance and efficiency for years to come?

With SEM Modernization from point electronic, you can enjoy user-friendly software, automation, and OS compatibility, all at a fraction of the cost of a new SEM.

Attend our vendor tutorial and learn why 320+ customers chose to modernize their SEMs and make them state-of-the-art with point electronic.

Wednesday, 5:45 p.m.

From Knobs to Code: open scan control meets single electron counting for data driven microscopy

Tuesday, August 4, 2026
5:45 PM (America/Chicago)
at our point electronic booth 329

This Vendor Tutorial is aimed at microscopists and “makers” who want to move beyond default scan modes toward programmable, data driven workflows.

Familiarity with STEM or SEM operation is assumed, but no specific programming background is required.

Focus will be on practical concepts, latest results, and implementation pathways that participants can bring back to their own instruments.

Joint Vendor Tutorial mit Lewys Jones, turboTEM.

Wednesday, 5:45 p.m.
