Figure 2
A 3D rendering of the goniometer (a), an external image of the VMXm sample vacuum chamber (b), equipment within the chamber surrounding the sample environment (c). Arrows indicate the direction of travel of the goniometer and sample in (a). J1, J2 and J3 denote the three air-bearing slides which are used to align the height of the sample (y), as well as the rotation axis in pitch and roll. The red (z) and blue (x) coloured stages are the SmarAct stages, each with two stages per direction; these are used to align the sample in x and z. (b) and (c) show the internal and external configuration around the sample position, including the scanning electron microscope (SEM), secondary electron detector (SED) and on-axis viewing system (OAV).
