Microscope
Features
These are the features we're looking for:
- 500x magnification
- 2 MP to 8 MP camera
- Objective table to move the chip slowly (i.e. not by hand, too much shaking and imprecision)
Feature we DON'T NEED:
- Confocal microscope (it seems, because we'll abrase/grind away the upper layers anyway and the bottom layers are opaque anyway too)
Leads
- Friend of Phil will lend a microscope with camera
- not perfect but should enable us to do the first etching/abrasive steps
- Ebay? No perfect match yet.
- Microscope.fr solution
- Different leads from microscope.fr website
- Euromex
- Euromex XE.5627 Discussion Microscope (299 EUR)
- Euromex AE.5175 Ball-beared mechanical stage (169 EUR)
- either Euromex DC.3200 CMEX-3 DIGI CMOS Microscope camera (3 MP) (989 EUR) or Euromex DC.1300 CMEX-1 DIGI CMOS Microscope camera (1.3 MP) (469 EUR)
- Total: from 937 EUR to 1457 EUR
- Bresser
- Bresser Trino Researcher II 40-1000x Microscope (349 EUR)
- Included mechanical stage
- Bresser PC MicrOcular 3 MP (289 EUR)
- Total: 638 EUR
