Low-Dose Imaging Techniques for Transmission Electron Microscopy
Transmission electron microscopes have the ability to visualize almost any specimen at the nanoscale. Unfortunately, modified imaging protocols are needed when samples are composed predominantly of low atomic number elements. In this chapter we review several methods that are currently employed to mitigate the adverse effects caused by electron irradiation to materials at the interface of biolo...
متن کاملHigh-resolution low-dose scanning transmission electron microscopy.
During the past two decades instrumentation in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has pushed toward higher intensity electron probes to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of recorded images. While this is suitable for robust specimens, biological specimens require a much reduced electron dose for high-resolution imaging. We describe here protocols for low-dose STEM image recording...
متن کاملScanning transmission low-energy electron microscopy
We discuss an extension to the transmission mode of the cathode-lens-equipped scanning electron microscope, enabling operation down to the lowest energies of electrons. Penetration of electrons through free-standing ultrathin films is examined along the full energy scale, and the contribution of the secondary electrons (SEs), released near the bottom surface of the sample, is shown, enhancing t...
متن کاملLow-dose aberration corrected cryo-electron microscopy of organic specimens.
Spherical aberration (C(s)) correction in the transmission electron microscope has enabled sub-angstrom resolution imaging of inorganic materials. To achieve similar resolution for radiation-sensitive organic materials requires the microscope to be operated under hybrid conditions: low electron dose illumination of the specimen at liquid nitrogen temperature and low defocus values. Initial imag...
متن کاملDiagnostic Transmission Electron Microscopy
The high resolution and sensitivity of electron microscopy is still a valuable tool, and for some diseases it is the gold standard in pathological diagnosis. Today the sample turnaround time for processing in the lab can be significantly reduced from days to hours by the microwave technology. In urgent clinical cases, microwaveassisted tissue processing, in combination with digital image acquis...
