- Background information - What is transmission electron microscopy?
- It allows detailed micro-structural examination through high-resolution and high magnification imaging.
- Focus/stigmation
- To achieve good focus by eye, at high magnifications, it is helpful to focus on the ‘grain’ of the sample support film.
- Image appearance
- At high magnification, crystals may exhibit diffraction contrast.
- Inorganic sample/physical science specimen preparation for TEM
- Machine operating procedures
- Instructions/procedure for using for low magnification (biological science use)
- Resolution
- The concepts of resolution and magnification are often confused.
- The Eucentric Position
- TEMs are set up so that magnification, camera length, and correct focus are set to this reference position.
- Using the JEM-1010 Transmission Electron Microscope for physical science material
- Chamber screen should now be filled with green light. If there isn’t any light, ensure the camera is out (press red light on camera control); check that the magnification is not extremely high; or possibly a grid bar is blocking the beam.
- Using the JEM-1010 Transmission Electron Microscope for thin resin sections of biological material
- Chamber screen should now be filled with green light. If there isn't any light, ensure the camera is out (press red light on camera control); check that the magnification is not extremely high; or possibly a grid bar is blocking the beam.
