Jeol ARM200F
Information
The Jeol ARM 200F is a world-class high-resolution (scanning) transmission electron microscope (S)TEM. The Warwick ARM 200F is aberration-corrected both in probe-forming opics (probe size FWHM <80 picometres) and in image-forming optics (image resolution <80 picometres). This allows atomic resolution imaging both in STEM and TEM modes, as shown in the examples (right).
The microscope has a Gatan Quantum electron energy loss spectrometer (EELS) to allow detection and quantification of the elemental composition down to the atomic level. Dual EELS allows both low-loss and core-loss regions of the spectrum to be collected simultaneously and a fast shutter allows data rates of up to 1000 spectra/second.
The microscope also currently has a 100mm2 Oxford Instruments windowless energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) detector. This also yields composition maps with atomic resolution; both EDX and EELS spectra can be collected simultaneously at high data rates.
