Model 2022

Compact Advanced Tomography Holder

Allows room temperature data collection over wide tilt and translation ranges, even in restrictive pole-piece gap geometries. The compact design minimizes holder volume and provides optimal tilt and field of view.

Compact Advanced Tomography Holder

The Compact Advanced Tomography Holder enables room temperature tomography for both life and physical sciences. The holder allows data collection over wide tilt and translation ranges – even in restrictive pole-piece gap geometries.

Based on the Model 2020 Advanced Tomography Holder, the Model 2022 Compact Advanced Tomography Holder has a shorter tip; the minimal holder volume allows optimal tilt and field of view. 

Included with the holder are: a specimen holder stand, a specimen loading stand, a Model 9010 Vacuum Storage Container, a spare parts kit (clamps, clamp springs, and screws), and a clamp tightening tool.

The holder:

  • Has a streamlined specimen clamp that eliminates the shadowing associated with most holders at high?tilt angles; the retractable clamp makes it easy to rotate the specimen manually for a dual-axis tilt series
  • Accepts standard 3 mm diameter TEM specimens or focused ion beam FIB lamella 
  • Accommodates specimen thicknesses up to 250 μm 
  • Has a tapered, self-centering specimen receptacle that guides the specimen into position 
  • Is compatible with the TEM’s touch alarm, which stops goniometer movement in the event that a pole touch occurs

Available for Thermo Fisher Scientific microscopes.
