ESEM Development and its Future

Dr. Danilatos has been pioneering the developement of the ESEM since 1978. This is his description of Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy and list of publications.

High Resolution Electron Microscopes

SuperSTEM

The SuperSTEM microscopes incorporate computer controlled aberration correction of the objective lens using quadrupole and octupole lenses. This allows the formation of a sub-Angstrom probe for simultaneous ultra-high resolution high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging and atomic-column electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) analysis of thin specimens. From EPSRC, Daresbury Laboratory.

Sub-Ångstrom Microscopy and Microanalysis Facility

State-of-the-art laboratory space for advanced electron microscopy that was designed to minimize AC electromagnetic fields, dampen the transmission of mechanical vibrations, eliminate the injection of acoustical noise, and minimize air flow at the instruments. Electron Microscopy Center, ANL

National Center for Electron Microscopy

NCEM is one of the world's most advanced centers for electron microscopy. In addition to facility information, the site includes images, new research, and publications. Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory

Aberration Corrected STEMs

This program aims to push STEM imaging and spectroscopy to the ultimate spatial and spectral resolution and sensitivity. Site includes research highlights, papers on techniques and applications. The STEM Group, Condensed Matter Sciences, Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
