Description
Pelcotec G-1 Silicon Calibration Specimen – 1 µm Pitch
Includes 1 m, 10 µm and 100 µm pitch
The Pelcotec G-1 calibration specimen with a 1 m pitch grid is very useful for magnification calibration or image distortion check in the 100x to 10,000x magnification range.
Can be used for SEM, Auger, Sims, FIB, and LM (reflected light).
Specimen may also be mounted directly on the Pelcotec G-1 which will give an accurate internal calibration in the image.
Particularly useful when working with powders.
Possible alternative for the SIRA calbration specimen (0.462 µm pitch) which is no longer available.
The Pelcotec G-1 has the following specifications:
- Total calibration area is 3x3mm with a 1 µm pitch grid
- Lines at 10um and 100um are thicker for easy orientation
- Includes 1 µm, 10 µm and 100 µm pitch
- 300nm +/- 30nm deep line etched in ultraflat Si
- Line width is 200nm at 1 m, 300nm at 10 m and 400nm at 100 m pitch lines
- Precision is 1 m +/- 0.025 m with a perpendicularity better than 0.01
- Serial number etched on each Pelcotec G-1 calibration standard
- NIST traceable version is Pelcotec G-1T
- Individually fully certified version is Pelcotec G-1C
- Si die size is 4x4mm with a thickness of 525 m +/-20 m, <100> orientation
- Boron doped silicon wafer with a resistivity of 5-10 Ohm/cm
- Available unmounted or mounted on SEM specimen mounts
To avoid contamination of test and calibration samples, we recommend storing these under vacuum.
