|  | The
TM-1000
Tabletop
Scanning
Electron
Microscope
brings
a completely
new approach
to microscopy.
This novel
instrument
gives
a performance
far in
excess
of an
ordinary
optical
microscope,
requires
no special
sample
preparation
for hydrated,
oily or
non-conducting
samples,
and is
as easy
to use
as a digital
camera.

EXAMPLE
APPLICATIONS: 
ENTOMOLOGY
BOTANY
AND ENVIRONMENTAL
MATERIALS
AND TEXTILES
SEMICONDUCTOR
MEDICAL
COSMETICS
AND PHARMACEUTICAL
| | Key
benefits
compared
to optical
microscopes:
|
- Higher
magnification
range
(up to
10,000X
compared
to around
1000X)
allows
more detailed
investigations.
- Better
resolution
(30 nm
compared
to around
0.1 micron)
gives
sharper,
clearer
images
containing
much more
detail.
- Improved
depth
of field
(approximately
0.5 mm
compared
to 2-3
microns)
means
that more
of the
sample
is in
focus
allowing
surface
morphology
to be
seen in
stereoscopic
detail.
- Image
contains
compositional
information.
The detector
used in
the TM-1000
can show
contrast
due to
different
average
atomic
numbers
of materials
in the
specimen.
- Simple
to use.
Autofocus,
auto-brightness
and auto-contrast
make it
a “see
&
shoot”
system.
- Digital
imaging.
All images
saved
on the
computer
for easy
access.
- Built-in
measurement
function
allows
dimensional
information
to be
acquired
quickly
and easily.
| | | Wide
range
of applications The
TM-1000
can be
used anywhere
an optical
microscope
might
previously
have been
required:
|
- Life
sciences
- Food
- Cosmetics
- Healthcare
- Pharmaceutical
- Textiles
- Materials
science
- Semiconductor
- Education

QuantomiX® >> "For
the first
time,
rapid
and routine
EM imaging
of biological
samples
in a wet
environment
is now
possible
without
the artifacts
normally
associated
with sample
preparation.
Cells
and wet
samples
can be
imaged
without
drying."
