Operation of Krios G3 Cryo - TEM
The Titan Krios G3 cryo transmission electron microscope (cryo-TEM) is the most powerful high resolution electron microscope specializing in cryo-based 3D characterization of biological samples. It is equipped with:
- A Schottky X-FEG high brightness electron source.
- Cs image corrector for compensation of spherical aberration (Cs) and semi-automated correction of astigmatism [0.08 nm (TEM) information limit].
- Flexible high tension range from 60 to 300 kV.
- Symmetric constant power C-TWIN objective lens with wide pole piece gap of 11 mm.
- Cryo autoloader for robotic loading of up to 12 frozen, hydrated samples.
- Volta phase plate solution for tunable phase shifting to optimize contrast.
- Low dose software kit to minimize electron dosage.
- Semi-automated data collection for continuous multi-day data acquisition.
- Falcon 3EC pre-GIF direct electron detector camera.
- Selectris energy filter coupled to a Falcon 4i direct electron detector camera..
- Automatic apertures and reproducible recall.
- Rotation-free imaging for clear orientation.
- A computerized 5-axis specimen stage with piezo-enabled drift compensation.
