ClearView Camera

Model 1195

The high-performance scintillator camera that elevates your everyday transmission electron microscopy.

Advantages

Introducing ClearView^®, the high-performance scintillator camera that elevates your everyday transmission electron microscopy (TEM). With ClearView, everyone can capture impactful in-situ and 4D STEM data at framerates faster than any other scintillator camera on the market. New camera imaging modes make it easy to capture the highest-quality images from materials science and biological samples.

Capture images with the highest quality

CMOS sensor features always-on high dynamic range sensor readouts to acquire 4k x 4k images and video at 50 fps

Record in-situ video and 4D STEM data at the highest speeds of any scintillator camera

Acquire data up to 1,600 fps at 256 x 256 resolution to record fast in-situ reactions or analyze large areas quickly with 4D STEM

$Maximize signal-to-noise for low-contrast imaging and diffraction: New enhanced frame exposure imaging mode integrates less read noise to better resolve subtle image and diffraction features under low-dose conditions$

Maximize signal-to-noise for low-contrast imaging and diffraction

New enhanced frame exposure imaging mode integrates less read noise to better resolve subtle image and diffraction features under low-dose conditions

Achieve the desired frame rate and data rate for any technique or experiment

Control image size and field of view with new sensor subarea region of interest readout options

Integrates with eaSI technology for the most efficient multidimensional and multimodal experiments

Acquires 4D STEM data linked with elemental data from complimentary detectors

In-situ option

Image binning increases framerate by 4x, and sensor sub-area readouts increase framerate by up to 8x
Combine binning with sub-area readout to reach up to 1,600 fps and study sub-ms in-situ reactions
Never miss the start of a reaction with LookBack™, a post-event triggered video buffer to ensure events are captured from the start
Confidently record long experiments with TimeLapse, which saves data at a longer interval of time or number of frames
Process data from start to finish in DigitalMicrograph^® using tools for drift correction, video editing, and data exporting

Low distortion option

Guarantees high-resolution, low-distortion images for quantitative spatial measurements on your TEM
Improved fiber-optic coupling and imaging performance minimize camera distortions
Low camera distortion offers a greater margin to achieve total distortion specification for regular TEM qualification

4D STEM and virtual aperture imaging with ClearView

The ClearView camera can acquire 4D STEM datasets at up to 1,600 fps, enabling high-throughput and large area 4D STEM acquisition. Using built-in tools in DigitalMicrograph, users can probe the diffraction image at different locations within the 4D STEM spectrum image and reconstruct RGB images from different virtual dark-field images. Images acquired at 200 kV using the ClearView camera and STEMx system (eaSI).

$Selected area electron diffraction pattern$

Selected area electron diffraction of Au nanoparticles taken with ClearView camera (4k x 4k, 2 s acquisition, 50 fps) and Spectra 300 at 300 kV.

$Better resolve faint, high-resolution diffraction spots$

Enabling Frame Control mode allows users to better leverage the full dynamic range of the camera and maximize the signal-to-noise in acquired images by reducing the camera framerate and minimizing the total readout noise in an image. The left image shows a selected area electron diffraction pattern of a Si [110] sample. Frame Control mode was used to optimize the signal-to-noise. The diffraction pattern was a 1s acquisition at 4 fps and 4k x 4k resolution. The middle image shows an inset area of the diffraction pattern, showing faint diffraction spots. Spot #1 in particular is very faint.

Enabling Frame Control mode allows users to better leverage the full dynamic range of the camera and maximize the signal-to-noise in acquired images by reducing the camera framerate and minimizing the total readout noise in an image. The left and middle images show a 2 s image acquisition captured at 4k x 4k resolution and 50 fps. These images provide high levels of detail from the semiconductor sample being imaged. The right image utilizes Frame Control mode to capture a 2 s image at 4k x 4k resolution and 1 fps and shows the same inset area.

Image samples at the desired orientation with TruAlign

TruAlign enables a digital rotation of the ClearView camera image so that data can be acquired at the desired sample orientation. Images acquired with a ClearView camera at 200 kV and . The original sample orientation image was acquired at 4k x 4k resolution and the TruAlign image was acquired at 2850 x 2850 resolution.

Large field of view, high resolution imaging of Au particles

Au nanoparticles, with fast Fourier transform (FFT) showing 0.9 Å resolution information (dashed line). Captured with ClearView camera (4k x 4k, 5 s acquisition, 15 fps) and Spectra 300 at 300 kV.

Live drift correction during imaging acquisition

ClearView can acquire images up to 30 s total capture time and apply a live drift correction to remove the effects of spatial drift. Utilizing live drift correction enables high-resolution data acquisition even with sample drift. Images acquired with a ClearView camera at 4k x 4k resolution and 200 kV.
