Direct Electron

TEM Cameras

Direct Electron delivers next-generation direct detection cameras for transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Direct electron has transformed the field of electron microscopy, starting with Biological Cryo-EM and now Material Science TEM/STEM.

However, not all direct detectors are created equal. Direct Electron's pioneering and award-winning Direct Detection Device (DDD^®) technology uses more sophisticated pixel design than other direct detection cameras, delivering lower noise, better sensitivity, higher speed and expanded versatility. The cameras also deliver full-speed movies to users to enable motion correction, dose filtering, in situ imaging, 4D-STEM data collection, and more.

Key Benefits

Industry-leading performance for Speed, Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE) and Modulation Transfer Function (MTF)
Global shutter and on-chip correlated double sampling can only be found on Direct Electron cameras
User-selectable frame-rate, image mode and array size
