Release of the JEM-F200, a multi purpose TEM

JEOL's latest addition to its suite of Transmission Electron Microscopes is the versatile JEM-F200, also nicknamed "F2", the only advanced analytical, high throughput 200kV S/TEM in its class to offer a Cold Field Emission Gun and dual Silicon Drift Detectors.

The combined boost in probe current from the Cold FEG with the dual EDS makes this TEM stand out in its class.The 'F2' employs the newest in JEOL innovations in an easy-to-use, extremely stable, high resolution imaging and analytical TEM.

The F2 incorporates many new features: 

  • Smart- design, with a new intuitive user interface
  • Quad-lens condenser system,  the new 4-stageprobe-forming optical system, Quad-Lens condenser system, controls the electron beam intensity and the convergence angle independently to respond to different research requirements.
  • Advanced Scan system,which is capable of scanning the electron beam in the image forming system (optional) , in addition to the standard scanning system for the probe-forming system. This accomplishes wide field STEM-EELS.
  • Pico Stage Drive, which is capable of driving the stage in pico meter steps without a piezo drive, and moving the area of view in a wide dynamic range from an entire sample grid to atomic order images.
  • Specporter, an auto holder loading/unloading device.
  • Improved coldFEG, Guaranteeing high stability, high brightness, and high energy resolution, the cold field emission electron gun enables chemical bonding analysis by EELS, speeds up the analytical process by the high brightness electron beam, and minimizes chromatic aberrations from the electron source for enabling high resolution imaging.
  • Dual SDD, for very fast EDS analysis and minimal sample damage.
  • Environmental friendly, the instrument can be switched to ECO mode when not in use, to reduce its energy consumption.

Main specification: TEM point to point: 0.19 nm STEM-HAADF: 0.14 nm (using Cold FEG and UHR polepiece)

JEM-ARM300F: The Ultimate Atomic Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has long been a tool essential for micro structure evaluation in the field of materials development.
However, as the fine structures of advanced materials are being designed at the nano level or atomic level, the synthetic process for such materials increasingly requires imaging and analysis at higher resolution.

To meet this demand, JEOL has focused on development of a transmission electron microscope incorporating spherical aberration correctors to exceed the current resolution boundary.
In 2009, JEOL announced the JEM-ARM200F, a 200 kV atomic resolution analytical transmission electron microscope featuring spherical aberration correctors, which achieved a resolution of 80 pm (scanning transmission (STEM) image) as the first ever commercial electron microscope.  To achieve the atomic level resolution, the JEM-ARM200F incorporates various capabilities to ensure highly stable operation.  With over 100 units of the ARM200F currently in operation worldwide, many researchers have become familiar with atomic level imaging and analysis.

JEM-ARM300F
Meanwhile, as aberration correctors are widely used, various new requirements for transmission electron microscopy are emerging, in addition to higher resolution, including higher analytical sensitivity, in-situ imaging, flexible accelerating voltage control, and ease of operation for aberration correction.

Thus, JEOL developed the JEM-ARM300F, a 300 kV atomic resolution transmission electron microscope featuring JEOL's own aberration correctors as an enhanced model of the JEM-ARM200F.
Nicknamed GRAND ARM, the JEM-ARM300F, incorporates JEOL's propriety dodecapole correctors, successfully increasing the resolution level to 63 pm (STEM resolution).
The GRAND ARM can be configured for ultra high resolution imaging or analytical applications for high sensitivity and in-situ analysis according to the user's needs.


The system is primarily intended for public and private research institutes and semiconductor manufacturers.

Main Features

  1. Ultra high resolution imaging
    Achieves a resolution of 63 pm in the scanning transmission electron microscope image (STEM) mode at an accelerating voltage of 300 kV, using JEOL's own spherical aberration corrector for the illumination system.
  2. High performance cold-cathode field-emission electron gun featuring high brightness and low energy dispersion
    Incorporates a new high performance cold cathode electron gun as standard; the high brightness beam with minimum chromatic aberration allows for high resolution imaging and analysis.
  3. Wide accelerating voltage range
    Supports accelerating voltage levels of 300 kV and 80 kV as standard; other accelerating voltage levels are optionally available as needed.
  4. Aberration corrector integrated with microscope base unit
    Incorporates JEOL's proprietary spherical aberration correctors in the image forming system (TEM aberration corrector) and in the illumination system (STEM spherical aberration corrector).
  5. Aberration corrector control system
    Uses the JEOL COSMO (JEOL Corrector System Module) system for auto control of the aberration correctors.
  6. Two types of objective lens pole piece
    Two types of objective lens polepiece are available to meet a wide range of users' applications.
  7. Vacuum system featuring dry pre-evacuation and high vacuum
    The vacuum system features a pre-evacuation system incorporating a turbo molecular pump as standard and an enhanced column evacuation system, achieving higher vacuum while minimizing contamination and damage in atomic level imaging and analysis.
  8. Stable column/console, specimen stage, and electrical system
    The column, 330 mm in diameter, features a higher level of mechanical rigidity.  The microscope base unit is also designed to enhance its mechanical/electrical stability and resistance to environment, fully utilizing the stabilizing technologies developed for the JEM-ARM200F.
