Analytical Capabilities

  • EDS: single 100mm2 SDD detector
  • EELS: Gatan GIF Continuum ER (1065) enabling energy-filtered TEM (EFTEM) applications in addition to high-speed EELS. Continuum 1065 is equipped with a low-noise, high dynamic range 2k x 2k CMOS detector with high-speed XCR detector technology. Includes high-speed EDS acquisition upgrade, enabling the simultaneous acquisition of EDS with high-speed EELS data.
