GMS 3 Analysis Tools: Multivariate Statistical Analysis

Electron energy-loss spectrum imaging is well established as a powerful tool for materials analysis. The wealth of information available beyond simple composition, coupled with high signal collection efficiency in next-generation imaging filters makes this technique particularly advantageous for advanced analysis and mapping.

This tutorial walks through the installation of Gatan Microscopy Suite software and set up to enable Python scripting.

Understand effects of the electron beam with the K3 IS Direct Detection Camera

The electron beam affects sensitive samples, and because conventional cameras require a higher dose, beam effects often prevent in-situ studies. However, K3 IS can count electrons – providing high-quality data at low electron doses. This allows the K3 IS to reveal high-resolution images of beam effects over time. The data shown was captured from this zeolite for 485 s.

Observe dynamic behavior with fast counted diffraction

With Gatan’s K3 IS direct detection in-situ camera you can observe sample dynamics with a high temporal resolution, e.g., crystallization, phase transformations, and lattice expansions. Data shows the utilization of counting to detect faint diffraction spots in this video of TiO₂ nanoparticle crystallization.

Extract the highest quality data from your sample with the K3 IS Direct Detection Camera

The K3 IS camera offers unsurpassed temporal and spatial resolution with a large field of view. Data shows <1 Å crystal lattice fringes over a huge area (e.g., >50,000 MoS2 unit cells in this image) while maintaining a low dose of 370 e-/Å2, even at this

Observe dynamic behavior with fast counted CBED

Counting with the K3 IS direct detection camera, provides good contrast for convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) even with minimal dose rate on the sample. With the optional STEMx system, the K3 IS allows the collection of 4D STEM datasets. These datasets can be used for strain mapping, orientation mapping, virtual apertures, and differential phase contrast (DPC) imaging.

Acquire higher quality images with the K3 IS counting camera

Capture more detail with less noise with Gatan’s K3 IS direct detection in-situ camera. Data shows the direct comparison of the Rio™ 16 IS and K3 IS cameras with a dose rate of 10 e-/Å2/s.
