Tools and Supplies for AFM, STM
SampleSaver™ Portable Storage Containers
Our custom storage container for the storing and transporting of samples for SEM, TEM, FIB, AFM, etc. This device is different from a vacuum storage unit or from desiccators. The unit allows you to evacuate and backfill or purge with dry nitrogen. You can then pressurize the container to eliminate the possibility of diffusion into the container. It is ideal for shipping or storing sensitive samples from lab to lab.
