Talos F200i Transmission Electron Microscope
The Thermo Scientific Talos F200i (S)TEM is a 20-200 kV field emission (scanning) transmission electron microscope uniquely designed for performance and productivity across a wide range of Materials Science samples and applications. Its standard X-Twin pole piece gap—giving the highest flexibility in applications—combined with a reproducibly performing electron column opens opportunities for high-resolution 2D and 3D characterization, in situ dynamic observations, and diffraction applications.
Talos F200i Transmission Electron Microscope advantages
Designed for multi-user and multi-discipline environments, the Talos F200i (S)TEM is also ideal for novice users. It is equipped with the Thermo Scientific Velox user interface, which is immediately familiar since it is shared across all Thermo Scientific TEM platforms. All TEM daily tunings have been automated to provide the best and most reproducible setup. The Align Genie automation software eases the learning curve for novice operators, reduces tensions in a multi-user environment, and improves time-to-data for the experienced operator. A side-entry retractable Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) detector can be added to the configuration to enable chemical analysis.
