Open Access Software

Below are examples of software provided by the SM3 project. These tools enable the collection and subsequent analysis of SEHI (Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging) image stacks. All software is available under an MIT licence.​

Why not try SEHI for yourself?

If you have any questions or need further information regarding the software available, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

AI-assisted Data Analytical Tool for Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging (in Matlab)

Matlab implementation of machine learning approach presented in the paper ''Towards Automated Chemical Analysis of Materials Using Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging and Unsupervised Learning'', which can be used for high-throughput chemical analysis of materials at the micro- and nano-scale.

02

Colour SEHI

The packaged MATLAB application is a data processing tool to enable colouring of hyperspectral image volume datasets from secondary electron hyperspectral imaging (SEHI).

​

The methodology of the colour enriched SEHI (CSEHI) approach is described in section 3.2 and 3.3 of the article:

SEHI - Automatic iFAST Spectral Acquisition 

This is an automatic iFast collection recipe (iFast developers kit version 3.0.16.1738) which steps the Mirror Voltage between -15V and 20.4 V (Energy range of -1.6 to 11.6 eV.) An image (frame time 0.5 seconds) is collected with each successive 0.6 V with no pauses between images. This batch of images can then be analysed to create S Curves and SE Spectra.
