UltraScan®1000XP
Model 994 TEM CCD Camera
The Model 994 UltraScan®1000XP replaces the highly acclaimed UltraScan® 1000 camera line, and with its introduction Gatan once again raises the performance standard in TEM scientific digital imaging. Redesigned from the ground up, the US1000XP combines state-of-the-art CCD electronics, Gatan’s next generation high-contrast resolution (HCR™) fiber-optic technology, and new P+ and U+ scintillators to achieve unrivaled performance in resolution, speed and sensitivity.
The US1000XP uses Gatan’s next-generation high-contrast resolution (HCR+) fiber optic technology and newly developed scintillator technology to deliver the highest resolution large format camera available.
A new class in itself, the US1000XP seamlessly blends in a single camera the ultimate image quality from the UltraScan series with the highest speed from the ORIUS series, opening up extraordinary possibilities in applications ranging from sub-Angstrom HREM to in-situ TEM, from electron diffraction to low dose cryoEM. Designed to be a reliable workhorse for years to come, the US1000XP is equally well suited for use by novices and experts, from the most routine to the most demanding EM investigations.
The US1000XP’s 2k x 2k CCD is read-out over 4 ports using Gatan’s patented Multi-Scan® technology. The standard 4 Megapixel/s readout mode reliably yields the very highest image quality possible. The optional 40 Megapixel/s readout mode allows live viewing at up to 30 frames/s. Various combinations of the new fiber optics and P+ and U+ phosphor scintillators deliver the highest image resolution at the optimal sensitivity for the particular application at hand. Flexible binning and sub-area readout as always support a wide range of imaging needs
The UltraScan 1000XP is controlled by the industry standard Gatan Microscopy Suite (GMS®) software which includes the industry standard DigitalMicrograph® software.
