The new HT7700 120 kV transmission electron microscope is designed for bio-medical research and R&D for pharmaceutical, advanced materials and nanotechnology. The revolutionary HT7700 is optimized for high contrast imaging at low electron doses and is set to make life much easier for microscopists with 100% integration of all functions into the graphical user interface. The HT7700 features a unique, high sensitivity real-time digital CCD camera which enables all microscope operations to be performed through the graphical user interface - including setup, alignment, image adjustment and image acquisition. The integrated camera provides higher sensitivity than a traditional fluorescent screen - so live high-contrast imaging is performed easily in a fully-lit room, and traditionally challenging low-contrast specimens can be easily observed. Similarly, beam sensitive specimens can be more easily observed than previous generation instruments which required higher illumination levels in order to observe meaningful contrast by eye on a fluorescent screen. The standard high-sensitivity real-time camera can also be supplemented with a choice of higher resolution CCDs. Enhanced digital imaging capabilities include Hitachi's EMIP-SP image management system for image archiving, classification and video acquisition, as well as fully-integrated dual-axis auto-tilt series acquisition (optional) and EMIP-3D three-dimensional reconstruction software (optional). The operating console is separate from the electron column, similar to an SEM - reducing the installation space required and making the instrument easier and more intuitive with all the functions available in one location.
