Company Overview

FEI is a leading diversified scientific instruments company. It is a premier provider of electron and ion-beam microscopes and tools for nanoscale applications across many industries: industrial and academic materials research, life sciences, semiconductors, data storage, natural resources and more. With a 60-year history of technological innovation and leadership, FEI has set the performance standard in transmission electron microscopes (TEM), scanning electron microscopes (SEM) and DualBeams(tm), which combine a SEM with a focused ion beam (FIB). FEI's imaging systems provide 3D characterization, analysis and modification/prototyping with resolutions down to the sub-Angstrom (one-tenth of a nanometer) level. FEI's NanoPorts in North America, Europe and Asia provide centers of technical excellence where its world-class community of customers and specialists collaborate. FEI has approximately 1800 employees and sales and service operations in more than 50 countries around the world.

FEI Company is the world leader in the production of electron microscopes for nanoscale research, serving a broad range of customers around the globe. Nanotechnology is the science of characterizing, analyzing and fabri­cating materials smaller than 100 nano­meters (a nanometer is one billionth of a meter). FEI's global customer base includes researchers, scientists, engineers, lab managers, and other skilled professionals in the following markets:

  • Research - includes a broad range of institutes, universities, and national laboratories conducting nanoscale research for a wide variety of applications including 3D nano-characterization, in situ nanoprocesses, and 3D nanoprototyping.

  • Industry - primarily per­forming research and development in material science; high-resolution imaging, macro sample to nanometer metrology, particle detection and characterization.

  • Electronics - developers and manufacturers in the semiconductor, data storage and related fields with an application focus in circuit edit, 3D metrology, defect analysis, failure analysis and TEM sample preparation.

  • Life Sciences - includes insti­tutes, universities, pharmaceutical companies and hospitals working in life sciences research and development in the areas of structural biology, cellular biology, tissue biology, and biomaterials.
