The Tecnai G2 F30 S-TWIN microscope is a versatile, general use microscope designed for high-resolution TEM and STEM characterization and equipped with multiple chemical analysis systems.
Capabilities include:
- Bright-field, dark-field, high-resolution TEM and STEM imaging and diffraction.
- Electron tomography to explore three-dimensional sample information.
- Electron holography to map electric and magnetic field distribution.
- Thin-window X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) for quantitative nanoscale mapping of elements with Z>5.
- Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) for single-spectrum, line, and mapping chemical analysis in STEM or energy-filtered imaging in TEM (EFTEM).
