Titan Krios

FEI

300kV, FEG, Gatan K3 direct detector, and Gatan Tridiem GIF with 2k x 2k post-GIF Gatan CCD

The FEI Titan Krios has an accelerating voltage of 300 KV with a field emission gun. It is mainly used for Cryo-TEM imaging and diffraction pattern with a 4k x 4k Ultrascan camera, US4000 with Gatan Tridiem energy-filter (EFTEM). It can also be used for room temperature and cryo-tomography, able to achieve magnifications of 740K. It has remote computer control.

The Krios has been upgraded with a Gatan K3 direct detector optimized for low contrast and low dose imaging. The BioContinuum^® post-column imaging filter improves contrast and delivers the most powerful imaging performance in life sciences applications. It combines the latest generation of GIF electron optics with the K3’s transformative technology and is optimized for cryo-electron microscopy and cryo-electron tomography. With the BioContinuum you can gain insight into the atomic structure of biological macromolecules and disease progression at the molecular level.
