摘要： The invention relates to a method of forming sections for inspection in an electron microscope and a fluorescent light microscope. Conventionally these sections are made by for example the Tokuyama method, which involves freeze substitution and fixing at cryogenic temperatures. A problem is the time that it takes to come from a sample to sections, as the diffusion speed of the chemicals (organic solvents and fixatives) is extremely low. The invention comprises the sectioning of the sample at cryogenic temperature and fixing afterwards. As the sections are much thinner (e.g. 100 nm or less) than the sample (often >1 μm), the total time it takes to come from a sample to a section ready for inspection is less than 8 hours. This makes it possible to achieve results relevant for health care within one workday.
摘要翻译：本发明涉及一种在电子显微镜和荧光显微镜中形成检查部分的方法。通常这些部分是通过例如Tokuyama方法制成的，其涉及在低温下的冷冻置换和固定。问题是从样品到样品的时间，化学品（有机溶剂和固定剂）的扩散速度极低。本发明包括样品在低温下的切片和固定。由于切片比样品（通常> 1um）更薄（例如100nm或更小），从样品到准备检查的部分所花费的总时间小于8小时。这样可以在一个工作日内实现与医疗保健有关的结果。

摘要： The invention relates to the extraction of a frozen hydrated sample for TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) inspection, such as a vitrified biological sample, from a substrate and the attaching of said sample to a manipulator. Such a hydrated sample should be held at a cryogenic temperature to avoid ice formation. By melting or sublimating a part of the sample material outside the area to be studied in the TEM and freezing the material to the manipulator (10), a bond is formed between sample (1) and manipulator. This makes it possible to transport the sample from the substrate to e.g. a TEM grid.In a preferred embodiment a part (2) of the manipulator (10) is held at a cryogenic temperature, and the melting or sublimation is caused by heating the tip (3) of the manipulator by electric heating of the tip and then cooling the tip of the manipulator to a cryogenic temperature, thereby freezing the sample (1) to the manipulator.
摘要翻译：本发明涉及从基材提取用于TEM（透射电子显微镜）检查的冷冻水合样品，例如玻璃化生物样品，并将所述样品附着到机械手。这样的水合样品应保持在低温温度以避免冰层形成。通过在TEM中将待研究区域外的一部分样品材料熔化或升华，并将材料冷冻至机械手（10），在样品（1）和机械手之间形成结合体。这使得可以将样品从衬底输送到例如。一个TEM网格。在优选实施例中，操纵器（10）的部分（2）保持在低温温度，并且通过对尖端的电加热来加热操纵器的尖端（3），然后冷却尖端而引起熔化或升华的操纵器到低温，从而将样品（1）冷冻到机械手。

摘要： In a transmission electron microscope detector system, image data is read out from the pixels and analyzed during an image acquisition period. The image acquisition process is modified depending on the results of the analysis. For example, the analyses may indicate the inclusion in the data of an image artifact, such as charging or bubbling, and data including the artifact may be eliminated form the final image. CMOS detectors provide for selective read out of pixels at high data rates, allowing for real-time adaptive imaging.

摘要： A detector system for a transmission electron microscope includes a first detector for recording a pattern and a second detector for recording a position of a feature of the pattern. The second detector is preferably a position sensitive detector that provides accurate, rapid position information that can be used as feedback to stabilize the position of the pattern on the first detector. In one embodiment, the first detector detects an electron energy loss electron spectrum, and the second detector, positioned behind the first detector and detecting electrons that pass through the first detector, detects the position of the zero-loss peak and adjusts the electron path to stabilize the position of the spectrum on the first detector.

摘要： A method of determining the temperature of a sample carrier in a charged particle-optical apparatus, characterized in that the method comprises the observation of the sample carrier with a beam of charged particles, the observation giving information about the temperature of the sample carrier. The invention is based on the insight that a charged particle optical apparatus, such as a TEM, STEM, SEM or FIB, can be used to observe temperature related changes of a sample carrier. The changes may be mechanical changes (e.g. of a bimetal), crystallographic changes (e.g. of a perovskite), and luminescent changes (in intensity or decay time). In a preferred embodiment the sample carrier shows two bimetals, showing metals with different thermal expansion coefficients, bending in opposite directions. The distance between the two bimetals is used as a thermometer.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for correcting distortions introduced by the projection system (106) of a TEM. As known to the person skilled in the art distortions may limit the resolution of a TEM, especially when making a 3D reconstruction of a feature using tomography. Also when using strain analysis in a TEM the distortions may limit the detection of strain.To this end the invention discloses a detector equipped with multipoles (152), the multipoles warping the image of the TEM in such a way that distortions introduced by the projection system are counteracted. The detector may further include a CCD or a fluorescent screen (151) for detecting the electrons.
