Presentation of the microscope

The JEM-ARM200F Cold FEG NeoARM is a transmission electron microscope fitted with a cold-field emission gun and a last generation spherical aberration corrector of the condensor lenses. It is equipped with high-end analytical tools, such as a wide angle EDX spectrometer, and an electron energy-loss spectrometer for STEM-EELS and filtered imaging capabilities. This instrument is optimized for structural and chemical analysis at sub-nm (atomic) resolution. It was installed in March 2019, within the Hubert Curien Laboratory, UMR CNRS 5513, in Saint-Etienne (campus Manufacture).
