The kSA 400 combines a high-resolution, high-speed, and high-sensitivity camera with sophisticated RHEED-specific acquisition and analysis software. This flexible system enables the analysis of virtually any image feature and, with one of many additional options, controls the electron gun for such tasks as acquiring RHEED rocking curves. Every kSA 400 system comes with all of the software and hardware needed for full RHEED acquisition and analysis. The kSA 400 is the industry’s most powerful analytical RHEED system and an integral part of MBE, PLD, PVD, and surface science chambers worldwide. Easy to use and straightforward to install, the kSA 400 is designed for convenience and gives quantitative results.
