Overview
The Technoorg Linda Gentle Mill 3 is a low-energy plasma milling system using an argon ion broad beam. Its low beam current and shallow ion incidence angle allow finishing polishing while minimizing damage to the specimen surface.
It is typically used for final-stage finishing (removal of the surface damage layer) after cross-sectional specimens have been prepared with other ion milling systems.
Features
- Low-Energy Plasma Milling: A low-acceleration argon ion broad beam enables finishing with minimal specimen damage.
- Shallow Ion Incidence Angle: An irradiation angle of 0–6° allows uniform finish polishing without significantly removing the specimen surface.
- Variable Beam Current: Beam current adjustable in the range of 5–80 µA.
