Rothamsted
Research Opens new Facility
|
Rothamsted
Research has officially opened its impressive new research
facility, which is designed to provide world-class science
for sustainable agriculture and the environment. Naturally
it makes heavy use of Gatan equipment – especially
in the field of cryo microscopy. Opened by Professor Julia
Goodfellow, Chief Executive of the BBSRC, the new complex
will work in plant, invertebrate and microbial biomolecular
sciences.

Harvard
first for ALTO + Dual Beam
|
We are pleased to announce the first customer installation
of ALTO 2500 onto a FEI DB235 dual beam, FIB + SEM. Researchers
at the Center for Imaging and Mesoscale structures at
Harvard will be able to precisely 'slice' and then examine
the internal microstructure of biological and beam sensitive
specimens using this exciting combination of technology.

ULSI Semiconductor
Technology Atlas
Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) refers
to semiconductor chips with more than 10 million
devices per chip. Written by three renowned
pioneers in their field (Chih Hang Tung, George
T.T. Sheng, and
Dr. C.Y. Lu), ULSI Semiconductor Technology
Atlas uses examples and TEM micrographs to
explain and illustrate ULSI process technologies
and their associated problems. More than 1,100
TEM images illustrate the science of ULSI.
