= FEI Titan 80-300 ATEM =

Titan Analytical can be used in two conditions, transmission (TEM) and scanning transmission (STEM) modes. The point (interpretable) resolutions for TEM and STEM at 300 kV are 0.2 and 0.08 nm, respectively, which allows atomic arrangements in materials to be visualized clearly. EDS and EELS equipped to the microscope can be used for elemental analysis from regions that are as small as 1 nm.  Specially, monochromated EELS, which is reachable to an energy resolution of 0.15 eV, allows the distribution of surface plasmons in nanostructured materials to be imaged at the nanometer scale and makes possible to determine the valence state of elements (e.g., Fe2+/Fe3+ ratios). This microscope is also dedicated to magnetic and electrostatic potential imaging since it has a biprism located at a selected-area aperture position and a Lorentz lens. This capability not only offers us to characterize magnetic materials and semiconductor devices but also may make possible to visualize different chemical states in low-density materials such as polymers and biological specimens. <br />

== Sample holders ==

The default specimen holders are a Fischione single-tilt tomography holder and an FEI double-tilt holder, which should be in the pumping station.
The lab has also other specimen holders used for various application e.g. heating (furnace and MEMS-based), cooling, biasing and tomography. For information on the various specimen holders see [[LabAdviser/CEN/Sample Holders|HERE]]

== Who may operate the Titan ATEM ==

In order to start training on the Titan ATEM you must by fully trained in the Tecnai TEM. Most of the basic operation on the Titan ATEM is the same as on the Tecnai with the added complexity of the aberration corrector and the monochromator.<br />

When you have demonstrated a high level of familiarity with the microscope you are allowed to book it via LabManager and use it 24/7.<br />

== Booking ==

Booking on the ATEM is done by the users in accordance to the booking rules. Booking rules can be found in LabManager under "Documents" for the ATEM.
