[[File:IMG_2076.JPG|350px|right|thumb|Tecnai T20 in building 314.]]DTU Nanolabs Tecnai T20 is a transmission electron microscope (TEM) used for performing both conventional, high resolution and scanning transmission microscopy (STEM) measurements. It is a versatile instrument, ideal for studying a wide range of general and advanced materials, soft matter, composites, etc. The microscope is equipped to carry out chemical analysis as well as Cryo-TEM for soft materials.<br />
DTU Nanolabs Tecnai T20 is a transmission electron microscope (TEM) used for performing both conventional, high resolution and scanning transmission microscopy (STEM) measurements. It is a versatile instrument, ideal for studying a wide range of general and advanced materials, soft matter, composites, etc. The microscope is equipped to carry out chemical analysis as well as Cryo-TEM for soft materials.<br />


The Tecnai T20 is a transmission electron microscope equipped with a thermionic electron source with a Lab6 filament and acceleration voltages that can vary between 80-200 kV. This gives the microscope a resolution @ 200 kV of 1.4 Å in TEM mode. Other tecniques available on the microscope are scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM, resolution 10 Å) with a high-angle annular dark-field detector (HAADF).<br />

On the analytical side, the microscope is equipped with an Oxford X-Max SDD X-ray detector for Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy and a Gatan Tridiem 863 imaging filter allowing for electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and energy-filtered imaging. For imaging, the microscope is equipped with Gatan US1000 CCD cameras before and after the energy filter.<br />
