I like the SEM because they usually have a FIB and EDS on board. So when I’m establishing morphology and stoichiometry it’s easy.

EDS is very easy yeah, I've done Auger spectroscopy it's very simple to do but the interpretation can be tough at times, it's surface-sensitive so mainly used in surface physics/science

FIB is great too, you can cut samples very precisely with this
