Advanced Tomography Holder

A revolutionary holder that allows room temperature data collection over wide tilt and translation ranges, even in restrictive pole-piece-gap geometries.

Advanced Tomography Holder

The Advanced Tomography Holder enables room temperature tomography for both life and physical sciences. The holder features high specimen tilt, an extended field of view, and allows data collection over wide tilt and translation ranges – even in restrictive pole-piece gap geometries.

The Advanced Tomography Holder is for life sciences and physical sciences, as well as any other applications requiring high specimen tilt and simultaneous large field of view.

Included with the holder are: a specimen holder 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 evenly distributes force on opposing edges of the specimen
  • 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 both JEOL and Thermo Fisher Scientific microscopes.
