What You will Learn:

ThermoFischer Desktop STEM (Webinar 1): Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) systems have for some time been available as an additional modality for TEM systems, promising increased contrast, particularly from unstained sections. But they have not been widely available outside of specialist comprehensive EM centers. In this webinar, we discuss the advantages of low-kV STEM imaging using the highly automated Thermo Scientific™ Phenom Pharos™ G2 FEG-SEM with the new scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) detector, which can achieve a higher resolution than the BSD detector at only 15 kV.

Tomocube Holotomography (Webinar 2): Holotomography (HT) allows for the imaging of cells and cellular organelles in 3D without the use of intrusive dyes or labelling. This novel technique prevents the perturbation of the cell physiology or morphology which in turn provides a true picture of the cell and its functionality. Label free, live cell imaging with quantitative measurement allows accurate 3D measurement of cell morphology, cellular interactions, and cellular kinetics. This webinar will discuss the technical aspects of how holotomography works, its advantages and its limitations. We will illustrate showing examples of what is possible.

Free Educational Webinars – Lithium-Ion Battery

Shahriar Dantism

Date:  Wednesday, Thursday, 5th and 6th of October, 2022

10:00 a.m. BST | 11:00 a.m. CEST

Register Now!

Lithium-ion battery are expected to generate an unprecedented demand for raw material in the upcoming decade. At the same time battery research, production, and quality control need to keep up with the growing demand for storage capacities. Battery manufacturers must not only deliver high quality, but also deliver it throughout the whole battery value chain. Analysis and testing of batteries raw materials and components requires therefore a variety of analytical methods that provide insights of quality and properties at various scales. This webinar series will highlight analytical techniques as chromatography, mass spectrometry and electron microscopy and their benefits for battery material and structural analysis.

Part 1 – October 5, 2022 10:00 a.m. BST | 11:00 a.m. CEST: Analysis of cathode materials
Part 2 – October 6, 2022 10:00 a.m. BST | 11:00 a.m. CEST: Analysis of battery electrolytes

Who should attend?

• Battery material analysis laboratory managers and analysts
• Battery cell manufacturers and their QA/QC personnel
• Scientists working in battery research and development

Webinar – Gas Sources in a Vacuum System

Redaktionsteam Schaefer Tec

Date: Thursday, February 13th, 17:00 PM

Register Now!

The base pressure of any vacuum system is dependent on the effective pumping speed as well as the gas load. In this webinar, we will cover the following topics:

  • List gas sources in vacuum systems
  • Explore causes of each type of gas source
  • Look at opportunities to reduce gas load

These sources include leaks (real and virtual), outgassing (vapor pressure of materials and desorption), and permeation. We will discuss their causes, and look at opportunities to reduce system gas load and lower a vacuum system’s base pressure.

This webinar is designed for Engineers and Technicians who operate and maintain vacuum systems.

Doug Baker, Director of Sales and Business Development for Teledyne Hastings will be presenting this webinar.

Label free technology for 3D Live Cell imaging and more

Redaktionsteam Schaefer Tec

We are pleased to present you a new 3D Holotomographic Microscope.

Holotomography (HT) enables researchers to image cell morphology in 3D without the use of labels. In addition, long term Live Cell Imaging (LCI) is possible due to the extremely low amount of light required for HT as there is no phototoxicity to the cell.

HT also facilitates precise measurement of Refractive Index (RI) at nanoscale, allowing estimations of protein and lipid concentration and their changes in real time.

High speed capture of the data set allows for dynamic imaging, with 3D capture rates of 2fps and 2D imaging at over 150fps for membrane fluctuation assessments.

With the new HT2 instrument, fast, quantitative, label free imaging can be combined with 3D fluorescence (FL) to allow correlative imaging with specificity. To minimize phototoxicity from fluorescence imaging, acquisition of HT and FL are decoupled allowing independent strategies

3D holotomography opens up numerous applications in biology and medicine.

  • Cellular dynamics: growth, differentiation, cell-to-cell interaction, invasion, death
  • Quantitative cell biology: number, mass, volume, surface area
  • Quantification of subcellular metabolites: lipid, polymer,…
  • New parameters for diagnostics: blood cells, lymph, cancer, tissue
  • Image-based species identification for fast diagnosis of infectious diseases

 

New HVG-2020B Series Vacuum Gauge

Redaktionsteam Schaefer Tec

Accurate vacuum measurement with flexible I/O and optional color display

Teledyne Hastings Instruments, a worldwide leader of vacuum instrumentation and thermal mass flow meters and mass flow controllers, announces the release of the HVG-2020B Series of vacuum gauges. The HVG-2020B vacuum gauge measures pressures from atmosphere to 0.1 mTorr using two sensor technologies – a media-isolated, gas composition independent, piezoresistive sensor and a precision pirani sensor.

The HVG-2020B Series has an optional color touchscreen display which provides several different views, or modes of operation, for the user including a graphical “pressure versus time” mode, process control set point mode, bar graph mode, and a simple pressure and temperature display.

In addition, the HVG-2020B is very flexible and can provide both analog and digital outputs to easily integrate into process control. A wide variety of analog output signals, both linear and log, may be selected for voltage or current output. Digital output can include RS232 and RS485 via a small jack on the top of the instrument. A USB connection is also available on many models which makes connection and operation very easy for the user. Free Windows® data acquisition software for data logging is available for the HVG-2020B.
