Hitachi Electron Microscope

Hitachi High-Tech Launches New Tabletop Microscopes with Enhanced Usability: TM4000PlusIII and TM4000III Hitachi High-Tech Corporation (“Hitachi High-Tech”) announced today the global launch of TM4000PlusIII (“TM4000PlusIII”) and TM4000III (“TM4000III”) Tabletop Microscopes equipped with support features for automation and stable operation. The TM Series shrinks the electron microscope to a size capable of being mounted on a tabletop. Thanks to their compact size and ease of installation, desktop microscopes are widely used not only for R&D, but also in quality control at manufacturing sites, science education at schools, and other purposes. In manufacturing environments in particular, there is a need to increase the efficiency of observation tasks and streamline operations so that even users with limited expertise can easily observe a large number of samples. The TM4000PlusIII is equipped with automation support features that enable users to create recipes for numerous conditions. Recipes can control functions such as stage position adjustment and magnification, which previously needed to be manually configured every time for each sample. In addition, they come equipped with maintenance features designed to facilitate consistent observation. One such function is a monitoring system that checks the condition of the tungsten filament* and graphically reports its condition. Since tungsten filaments require regular replacement, this function allows users to track the filament lifetime and plan ahead with maintenance tasks to allow for smooth and consistent operation of the tool.

Dairy products were observed in a liquid using newly-developed “Vitro” detector. The new detector utilizes the difference of dielectric constant for image formation to allow high-contrast imaging of unfixed or unstained light-element samples while suppressing sample damage. Milk-fat globules with a diameter of 150 nm to 3 μm were observed in the milk and the infant formula mixed in water. Many casein-micellar-like particles were recognized in the milk. A few particles found in the infant formula may be casein-micellar particles. #Milk #InfantFormula #SEM #ElectronMicroscopy #ElectronMicroscope Available tools for this measurement are : Schottky Field Emission SEM https://lnkd.in/gYP3C7EY Further details and previously posted applications can be found on our YouTube channel.

Our latest paper with my recently graduated student, Dr. Sabrina Clusiau, and my long-time collaborator Dr. Nicolas Piché was published recently in Ultramicroscopy and is entitled: Workflow automation of SEM acquisitions and feature tracking. This paper presents our approach to automating the scanning electron microscope for Image Acquisition and feature tracking. https://lnkd.in/eR65j4j3

Gratulujemy naszemu inżynierowi Michałowi Wilczakowi udanej instalacji 👏 #instalacja #hitachi #ionmillingsystem

A recipe for cross-section trench pattern imaging workflow was created using an automatic continuous imaging software, EM Flow Creator (EMFC). The recipe automatically acquires the fine pattern at 250,000 magnification in the area with a width of 35 μm and 56 images were acquired in 15 minutes and the data acquisition throughput is comparable to manual operation. The automation enables operator-independent consistent measurement and allocation of human resource to improve overall analysis efficiency. #TrenchPattern #SEM #ElectronMicroscopy #ElectronMicroscope Available tools for this measurement are : Ultra-high Resolution Scanning Electron Microscope https://lnkd.in/gaBtztZt Further details and previously posted applications can be found on our YouTube channel.
