Square beams for optimal tiling in TEM
Imaging large fields-of-view at a high magnification requires tiling. Transmission electron microscopes typically have round beam profiles; therefore, tiling across a large field-of-view is either imperfect or results in uneven exposures, which is a problem on dose-sensitive samples. Here we introdu...

description | Imaging large fields-of-view at a high magnification requires tiling. Transmission electron microscopes typically have round beam profiles; therefore, tiling across a large field-of-view is either imperfect or results in uneven exposures, which is a problem on dose-sensitive samples. Here we introduce a square electron beam that can be easily retrofitted in existing microscopes and demonstrate its application showing it can tile nearly perfectly and deliver cryo-EM imaging with resolution comparable to conventional setups. |
