JEOL Introduces Ultra-High Resolution Analytical Field Emission SEM
JEOL introduces the JSM-7800F, which represents a significant leap forward in field emission SEM technology. The JSM-7800F uniquely combines an in-lens field emission gun with an aperture angle control lens (ACL), optimizing large probe currents (up to 200 nA) for operation at the smallest probe diameter. The new super hybrid lens design and versatile in-column detectors with filtering capabilities allow observation of any specimen, especially at ultra-low accelerating voltages down to 10 V.

Photonic Science Full HDTV Low-Noise sCMOS Camera
The new high-sensitivity full HDTV low-noise cooled sCMOS camera from PSL delivers read-out noise as low as 1.2 electrons at 100 MHz overall scanning frequency. It is targeted to users with low light level requirements, seeking real-time acquisition with high intrascene dynamic range > 20,000:1. The camera actively compensates for fixed pattern noise, non-uniform response, and gain balance on a parallel bus read-out architecture.

New Possibilities for Multiphoton Microscopy from Carl Zeiss—OPO and Simultaneous Lasers for LSM 7 Series
Multiphoton confocal microscopes from Carl Zeiss now permit the simultaneous use of two NLO lasers or one laser with an optical parametric oscillator (OPO). Both components are fully integrated and expand the functionality of the multiphoton systems. In dual laser systems different laser wavelengths simultaneously excite several fluorescent dyes or proteins. Users can image specimens with one wavelength and manipulate them in the multiphoton mode with another.

Andor Technology Offers Unprecedented Confocal Image Capture Rates with the Revolution XD System
The launch of the Revolution XD spinning disk confocal family provides a choice of upright and inverted microscope configurations. Capture events you have never seen with the high-speed Andor iXon Ultra and see detail you may have missed with the Neo sCMOS camera. Our microscopy portfolio offers application focus, and by manufacturing its own components, such as laser combiners and targeted illumination devices, Andor Technology can customize solutions to specific research needs.

Auriga® Laser: Combination of FIB/SEM Technology with Laser Ablation
Carl Zeiss launched the AURIGA® Laser, a new advanced system combining the advantages of the AURIGA® CrossBeam (FIB-SEM) workstation with the capabilities of a pulsed micro-focus laser for fast ablation of material. AURIGA® Laser is particularly useful for the examination of samples where the target structure is deeply buried under material layers. Ablation with a pulsed micro-focus laser beam does not damage the sample, and it enables ablation rates comparable to mechanical removal.

New Generation of LED Illuminators
CoolLED Ltd. announces the launch of its pE-200 and pE-300 family of LED light sources. These new LED products benefit from even greater intensity, are more compact, and offer greater value. Common 2-wavelength (pE-200) and 3-wavelength (pE-300) configurations are available, meeting needs common to clinical, tissue culture, and confocal configurations. The units will be available as a direct fit, which simply replaces the redundant mercury source. Light-guides or optical fibres will follow in future months.

EDAX Launches New Silicon Drift Detector and Sample Viewport for Orbis Micro-XRF Analyzer
EDAX Inc. introduced new detector and sample viewport options for its Orbis micro-XRF elemental analyzer system. The new detector is a thermoelectrically cooled 50 mm2 silicon drift detector (SDD) capable of high-resolution spectral acquisition at high count rates. In applications where the detector is signal “starved,” the new SDD detector can collect the same spectral data in half the time as a standard Orbis 30 mm2 SDD detector.

Princeton Instruments Introduces the IsoPlane, a Revolutionary Aberration-Free Imaging Spectrograph
The newest imaging spectrograph from Princeton Instruments is the IsoPlane SCT-320. The IsoPlane™ (patent pending) features a revolutionary new optical design that eliminates the primary aberrations present in traditional imaging spectrographs. It produces images that are clearer and sharper across the focal plane than any comparable spectrograph on the market. As a result, more photons end up in spectral peaks, significantly increasing the effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
