134 results about "Scanning transmission electron microscopy" patented technology

A scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) is a type of transmission electron microscope (TEM). Pronunciation is [stɛm] or [ɛsti:i:ɛm]. As with a conventional transmission electron microscope (CTEM), images are formed by electrons passing through a sufficiently thin specimen. However, unlike CTEM, in STEM the electron beam is focused to a fine spot (with the typical spot size 0.05 – 0.2 nm) which is then scanned over the sample in a raster illumination system constructed so that the sample is illuminated at each point with the beam parallel to the optical axis. The rastering of the beam across the sample makes STEM suitable for analytical techniques such as Z-contrast annular dark-field imaging, and spectroscopic mapping by energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, or electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). These signals can be obtained simultaneously, allowing direct correlation of images and spectroscopic data.

The immobilization formula comprises a PBS buffer solution, polysorbate and glutaraldehyde, and a glutaraldehyde immobilization liquid is prepared from the above-mentioned components. The method comprises the following steps: (1) observing whether host tissue is left in basis capituli of the tick sample and if so, removing the host tissue; (2) cleaning the surface of the tick sample; (3) immobilizing the tick sample at room temperature by using the glutaraldehyde immobilization liquid; (4) carrying out gradient dehydration with ethanol on the immobilized tick sample; (5) putting the tick sample into mixed liquor of absolute ethyl alcohol and acetone for displacement, and then putting the tick sample into acetone for displacement; and (6) drying the tick sample in a vacuum freeze drying instrument for drying and spraying gold on the tick sample. During scanning electron microscopic observation, the phenomenon of fuzzy and foggy images or incapable imaging due to ionization discharging of the sample as water vapor produced after electron beam bombardment of the sample encounters high-energy electron streams is prevented.
