Our specimen holders extend the capabilities of the Transmission Electron Microscope. Conduct your experiments in-situ in the TEM.
Our sample stages extend the capabilities of the Scanning Electron Microscope / Focused Ion Beam Microscope. Conduct experiments inside the SEM or prepare your specimen inside the FIB.
To get the most out of your TEM holders use Hummingbird Scientific's selected TEM holder accessories.
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and Argonne National Laboratory have used the Hummingbird Scientific in-situ TEM magnetizing holder to investigate the changes in magnetic domain structure with respect to the applied magnetic field in a Fe-Pd-Co magnetic shape memory alloy.
