SEM simulation software
AMAG Nanometro's SimuSEM software simulates scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and electron interactions with solids.
SimuSEM's core simulation engine is NIST’s validated JMONSEL simulator, augmented with much faster performance, many additional materials, and numerous other improvements. SimuSEM provides a comprehensive 3D visualization system using the Blender application as an intuitive GUI.
SimuSEM can run on virtually any Windows PC or Linux system, including in-house servers and workstations, cloud servers, desktop PCs, or even laptops, with performance that scales with the number of available CPU cores.

SimuSEM's GUI
SimuSEM's GUI is built on the Blender open-source 3D modeling application. Blender is widely used for entertainment-quality animation, visual effects, interactive 3D applications, and 3D printer target design. It is an excellent 3D Cartesian space for a physical simulation GUI, providing the user with a powerful and rewarding sample generation workbench.
Blender's 3D interface allows SimuSEM to scale, move and rotate primitive and user-defined shape objects and Boolean operators for sample design with outstanding visualization.
Key SimuSEM Features
- Simulations run in the background, with results displayed in SimuSEM's GUI for analysis and detailed viewing.
- Discretely-defined height map objects for rough features and edges.
- A growing database of materials, with a path to adding more, including proprietary materials.
- Adjustable beam energies, beam spot sizes or profiles and tilt beam, user-defined discrete detectors with tunable energy windows, and other SEM variants.
- User-defined roughness, new materials, and other augmentations.
- Results images for SE, BSE or user-defined energy windows, viewable top-down and in 3D.
- Energy, angle & detector hit histograms/maps, and energy absorption maps.
- Fully viewable electron trajectories in 2D & 3D.
- Extremely fast
