Hummingbird Scientific’s single-tilt tomography TEM holder with removable sample clamp tips are designed to maximize tilt and allow cross-platform transfers and imaging. Because the system permits  high tilt angles, the sample itself is the only contributor to the missing wedge. A range of removable tips are available for the system and can be customized for specific specimen support geometries.

Sample Applications:

• 3D reconstruction of nanostructures and embedded structures such as dislocations and precipitates
• Correlative comparisons between TEM and atom probe tomography
• Post-mortem analysis of chips used in fluid and gas experiments
• 3D reconstruction of embedded biological specimens
