GATAN

This system is ideal for researchers who want to reproducibly remove organic surface contaminants in a safe, efficient manner.

• Integrated holder bakeout and storage: Reduces tool footprint and cost of ownership
• Enhanced user interface: Use preoptimized recipes for consistent results; as well as guided workflows to ensure proper operation when venting and evacuating the chamber
• Low-power operation (2 W): Gently clean delicate samples (e.g., holey carbon grids); as well as prepare hydrophilic surfaces on carbon grids for cryo-electron microscopy
• New system, same great performance: Remove hydrocarbons on TEM and SEM samples that may impact analysis

Introducing Stela™ – the only fully integrated hybrid-pixel electron detector with the Gatan Microscopy Suite® (GMS) software for advanced electron diffraction studies. It utilizes the DECTRIS hybrid-pixel electron technology that employs electron counting to minimize noise and uses on-the-fly digitization for the highest dynamic range.
