Transmission electron microscope LVEM5

Description

The LVEM5 is designed to excel across a broad range of applications in material sciences, such as nanomaterials, polymers and biomaterials, and in life sciences, such as drug discovery and delivery, pathology and virology. The LVEM5 offers a high throughput benchtop solution with nanometer resolutions.

The LVEM5 has an architecture that departs from traditional models. The benchtop design alone is a significant architecture and footprint departure from classical TEM design. The LVEM5 is approximately 90 % smaller than classical electron microscopes. This means that the LVEM5 can be installed in a lab, on a desktop or benchtop; almost anywhere electron imaging is needed. It features a small footprint and is easy to service. There is no need for a dark room or cooling water.

The LVEM5 is a unique investigative tool which combines transmission (TEM, STEM) and surface scanning (SEM) observation modes. High contrast on light elements comes from the 5 kV accelerating voltage, which is substantially lower than in conventional TEM (typically 80–200 kV). This results in increased electron scattering and enhanced contrast on biological, organic and light materials

• unique concept of S / TEM bench microscope with compact dimensions
• extremely easy to use – ideally suited for research and teaching purposes;
• enables high performance imaging in TEM, STEM, ED, SEM modes;
• ensures high contrast of obtained sample images – without the need to stain biological samples;
• microscope inexpensive to operate – due to advanced vacuum system and S-FEG emitter with a long service life, service operations on the device are limited to a minimum

an excellent solution for imaging nanoparticles, stained and unstained biological and polymer samples, powders, fibers or nanotubes;
