In August 2017, JEOL released its latest state-of-the-art scanning electron microscope (SEM), the JSM-IT500HR. The new JSM-IT500HR delivers the maximum practical magnification of x100,000 and also integrates an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) with the system. This next-generation SEM enables operations for various applications such as surface imaging, elemental analysis, and report creation to be performed seamlessly. In the following behind-the-scenes development of the SEM, we introduce to you our development team members whose "non-stop" drive and passion have made the launch of JSM-IT500HR possible.

A new FE-SEM JSM-7900F, released in May 2017, is a scanning electron microscope that simultaneously delivers ultrahigh spatial resolution imaging and guarantees superior usability. Takehiko Shinzawa is this interview highlighted the behind-the-scenes matters of its development.

The story behind the birth of the world’s smallest high performance spectrometer

Definitely, we can : The story behind the birth of the world’s smallest high performance spectrometer

JEOL RESONANCE Inc.
Kenichi Hachiya. Development Group,Engineering Division

In August 2014, JEOL RESONANCE released a new NMR spectrometer, the ‘Z series’ (JNM-ECZS & JNM-ECZR). The routine ‘S’ model delivers performance equivalent to the high-end research ‘R’ model, but the spectrometer was smaller than all previous models – the main cabinet being just half the size of existing models. Here, we continue the story behind the birth of the world’s smallest, high performance NMR spectrometer.

Cryogenic probesThe development of “UltraCOOL” & “SuperCOOL” probes

To a New World. : Cryogenic probesThe development of "UltraCOOL" & "SuperCOOL" probes

JEOL RESONANCE Inc.
Katsuo Asakura. Assistant Manager, Solution Marketing(at the time)

In 2013, JEOL RESONANCE launched the cryogenic NMR probe systems,"UltraCOOL" and "SuperCOOL". Delivering sensitivity far exceeding conventional room temperature probes together with ease of use beyond that previously associated with cooled probes, such as probe change whilst cooled, and variable temperature measurement capability, the products received a lot of positive response. However, many dramatic stories lay behind the birth of these products.
