The HT7700 from Hitachi High-Technologies is the latest in Hitachi's H-7000 series of TEMs optimized for high contrast imaging at low electron doses. It 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. Practical operation is performed on a console separate from the electron column, similar to SEM - reducing the installation space required and making the instrument easier and more intuitive to use by ensuring that all functions are available in one location. The integrated real-time 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 which are also fully integrated into the HT7700 user interface.
