Transmission Electron Microscopy

Hitachi HT7700 Transmission Electron Microscope


The 120 kV Hitachi HT7700 is fully digital: it is outfitted with a video camera for fast scanning and alignment, and an AMT BioSprint16M-ActiveVu 16 megapixel cooled 4896 x 3920 pixel CCD camera for high-resolution images. It has a high-tilt stage for electron tomography.

Acquisition of the Hitachi HT7700 Transmission Electron Microscope was funded by the National Science Foundation Grant DBI-1040548 and the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Graduate Education of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
