What the buyer is looking for

The G.6/Metro Target Preparation Group needs to characterize the targets it produces. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) would be a very useful addition. It must be build into a glovebox since it will be used for radioactive material, a small model (desktop model) is preferable.
