Electron microscopes can excite electrons to form images that magnify micron and nanostructures up to 10 million times, providing amazing levels of fine magnification and allowing researchers to observe even individual atoms. CD BioSciences can provide innovative solutions for electron microscopy and microanalysis. We offer FEI Titan 80-300 instruments that allow customers to combine high-resolution imaging with physical, elemental, chemical and electrical analysis to obtain usable data from the widest range of samples.
The instrument has also scanning transmission imaging (STEM), magnetic imaging, and chemical analysis capabilities. It has a Lorentz lens and a bi-prism for imaging electrostatic and magnetic potentials or fields in materials. It is also equipped with an energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer and an electron energy-loss image filter spectrometer. A mass-flow controlled catalytic reaction system capable of providing controlled pressures of gas mixtures allows careful control over catalyzed reactions, as well as holders for provision of liquids, atmospheric pressure gases and controlled temperature excursions through MEMS-based heating elements. The system is fitted with a Gatan K2-IS — a first of it's kind 'direct electron detector' dedicated to high frame rate / low dose imaging of reactions.

This instrument is the first 80-300kV field-emission environmental transmission electron microscope to be installed in the US with an objective-lens aberration corrector. It has a spatial resolution of 0.08 nm in the high-resolution phase contrast mode, and is capable of achieving this resolution at unusually high pressures due to the differential pumping apertures and custom pumping arrangement that is incorporated with the system. The maximum gas pressure for the environmental-cell is about 20mbar for N2, with other maximum pressures dependent on the atomic weight of the gas. As a result, this instrument is uniquely well-suited to imaging the fundamental mechanisms of catalysis and catalyzed nanostructure growth.
