Automated data processing with segmentation and alignment of subframes helps you get the most out of your data.Advanced control software:
Seamlessly move between measurement programs with our intuitive interface, or use our powerful tools to design something new.
How dose Relativity work?
Relatvity installs an electrostatic optics assembly in a wide-angle camera port. These optics rapidly deflect the image data to different regions (or subframes) of the camera in a programmable sequence. Each camera readout contains a tiled array of crisp, blur-free subframes. Raw data is automatically analyzed to give a stack of images.
Applicable models: JEM-ARM300F/300F2, JEM-ARM200F, NEOARM, JEM-F200, JEM-2100Plus, JEM-2100F

Select one of these configurations to order. Custom configurations can be made available on request.
In the JEM-2100Plus, Relativity deflector module is installed in the left-side dark field STEM detector port.
The subframe size for SD configuration is limited by the spacing between deflector electrodes (the ‘deflector gap’). Detailed information is available in the specification sheet of Relativity.
The subframe size for IF configuration is limited by a circular aperture installed on the top of Relativity deflector module. The subframe sizes are also affected by imaging conditions.
Due to geometrical constraints, different subframe array layouts are optimal for different detector sizes. Gatan OneView camera is chosen for illustrative purposes. Relativity system is compatible with nearly all commercially-available cameras.

Programmable STEM with EDM Synchrony
Control the dose at every pixel.
The Electrostatic Dose Modulator (EDM) is a fast beam blanking system with a pre-sample electrostatic deflector, including electronics and software control. EDM can also attenuate electron illumination without affecting imaging conditions, giving TEM and STEM users more control over the dose on their samples.The optional Synchrony upgrade takes EDM's timing and synchronization capabilities to the next level. Synchrony can coordinate with a STEM controller, tracking the probe beam location as it scans across the sample. EDM's lightning-fast electrostatic blanking turns the beam on for a specified time at each pixel, or keeps the beam blanked to completely exclude sensitive regions from dose.
