Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)

The Talos L120C transmission electron microscope (TEM) provides advanced performance and automated ease of use across a wide range of sample applications. 

 Users have access to routine 2D imaging at ambient temperatures for negative stained or thin sectioned samples or advanced cryo-TEM capabilities with tomography to image cryo-prepared specimens. 

The high resolution 4K x 4K CETA CMOS camera ensures high sensitivity with high speed imaging while correlative MAPS software and single particle analysis EPU software provide powerful post-image acquisition data analysis.
