GIF 863 Tridium
The GIF Tridiem is Gatan’s 3rd generation of post-column energy filters. It combines 3rd-order spectrometer aberration correction with a multi-port, high-speed, high-resolution CCD sensor to yield a system that defines the new state-of-the-art in the capture of highly-detailed EELS and EFTEM data sets with maximum throughput. This new GIF, combined with the Gatan Microscopy Suite (GMS) software, is ideally suited for generating and working with the rich 3-dimensional data sets demanded by today’s analytical electron microscopists, including EFTEM and EELS STEM spectrum images, EFTEM tilt and tomography series, and time series. GIF Tridiem makes such tri-dimensional EM readily accessible
- Large collection semi-angle for energy-filtered
diffraction: 120 mRad, full azimuth (on TEMs with special GIF lens modes)
- Large field-of-view for energy-filtered TEM imaging and
mapping: 20 um, diagonal (on TEMs with special GIF lens modes)
Excellent isochromaticity over the entire EFTEM field-of-view: max variation no more than ±1 eV at 200 kV
- Very large searchable
field-of-view in unfiltered TEM mode: > 200 um, diagonal (on TEMs with special GIF lens modes)
- Exclusive “cinema mode” readout for
smooth, high-quality real-time viewing: > 10 frames/sec Rich EELS detail with each spectrum readout: > 2000 channels (e.g. capture 600 eV range at 0.3 eV/channel)
- High spectrum readout rate for STEM
spectrum imaging: > 30 spectra/sec
- Complete system specification
