Description
*ANALYSIS OF RADIOACTIVE SPECIMENS WITH THIS INSTRUMENT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED*
*USERS WORKING ON RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS SHOULD REQUEST TRAINING ON THE TECNAI HERE*
The FEI Talos F200i S/TEM is a state-of-the-art field emission gun scanning/transmission electron microscope capable of providing micro- to sub nm-scale structural, morphological, and chemical information.
Instrument Specifications:
- Configured for 80 or 200 (default) kV operation
- S-FEG Schottky field emission gun
- X-twin objective lens (Cs = 1.2 mm at 200 kV)
- FEI single-tilt and high-visibility, low-background double-tilt (hex ring) holders available
- Bottom-mounted FEI Ceta 16 megapixel CMOS camera
- Fischione Instruments Model 3000 HAADF-STEM detector; FEI BF, DF2 (segmented), and DF4 (segmented) STEM detectors for DPC, iDPC and dDPC imaging
- High-resolution (lattice) imaging with <0.1 nm information limit (at 200 kV)
- 0.16 nm STEM resolution (at 200 kV)
- Bruker XFlash 6T|30 windowless SDD (30 square mm active area) energy dispersive spectroscopy system
- Atomic-resolution HAADF, LAADF, BF, ADF, ABF, DPC, iDPC, and dDPC, STEM imaging
- ~1 nm resolution EDS mapping
- Bright-field, centered dark-field, weak-beam dark-field, and conical dark-field TEM imaging
- High-resolution (lattice) TEM imaging with <0.1 nm information limit
- Selected area and convergent beam electron diffraction
