JEOL USA Press Releases

JEOL is proud to announce the JEM-Z200MF, a state-of-the-art scanning/transmission electron microscope (S/TEM) designed for atomic resolution imaging in a magnetic field-free environment. The MARS (Magnetic field-free Atomic Resolution imaging System) enables high resolution observation without applying strong magnetic field to specimen. This observation method is expected to become a groundbreaking tool that will significantly advance cutting-edge material research and development in fields such as magnets, steel, semiconductor devices, and quantum technology. Recently highlighted in a ...

The introduction of direct electron detectors significantly improved the signal-to-noise ratio of electron micrographs, resulting in a marked enhancement in the quality of cryo-electron microscope (EM) reconstructions (now referred to as the “resolution revolution”). This approach, along with advances in image processing and data collection, has pushed the resolution of single-particle cryo-EM reconstructions into the range where the electron source could become a limiting factor. This in turn has led to the reconsideration in cryo-EM ...

JEOL (President and CEO: Izumi Oi) announces the release of the new electron microscope JEM-120i developed with the concepts of "Compact", "Easy To Use", and "Expandable" on May 30, 2024. Electron microscopes are utilized in a wide range of fields from biotechnology to nano technology, polymers, and advanced materials. With the expansion of application, usages are also expanding, which requires a tool that is easy-to-use for research and testing purposes. To satisfy such needs, the ...

Peabody and Andover, MA - Two towering JEOL Electron Microscopes stand ready to produce terabytes of valuable data for researchers at Generate:Biomedicines each day, who are accelerating drug discovery and development of novel therapeutics using machine learning and generative artificial intelligence. The two Transmission Electron Microscopes, the JEOL CRYO ARM 200 and CRYO ARM 300 are used in structural biology, and at Generate:Biomedicines they will be used to capture atomic resolution details of proteins ...

The two leaders announced a partnership that includes a new JEOL demonstration facility located in Covalent’s Silicon Valley lab. The partnership will accelerate applications development and broaden client access to a suite of state-of-art instrumentation and analytical services. December 07, 2021 – Sunnyvale, CA. Covalent Metrology, a leading North American provider of analytical services, announces its partnership with JEOL a global leader in the development of cutting-edge scientific instruments used in microscopy, analytical chemistry, and ...

Materials science researchers in Japan have achieved extraordinary in-situ Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) experiments using a new Luminary Micro laser technique. They succeeded in recording atomic-resolution in-situ movies of growing carbon nanotubes and onion-shaped carbon nano structures. The structures were formed by laser irradiation of samples made of carbon films and iron nanoparticles. This experiment was conducted using a JEOL 300kV Transmission Electron Microscope with a cold field emission gun, JEM-ARM300F, and a new system ...

On June 2, 2021, JEOL will focus on advances in life science research using electron microscopy in its “24 Hours of Life Science” conference. Twenty-four different sessions throughout the full day will cover topics including: - Connectomics and the study of complete volumes of tissues or materials captured at high resolution - Correlative microscopy using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy to collect large areas of TEM-like data at multiple depths, overcoming the challenge of small ...

April 1, 2021 Peabody, Mass -- JEOL, the leading supplier of electron microscopes in North and South America, begins a new partnership on April 1st, 2021 with SOQUELEC LTD., a Montreal, Quebec company with more than 40 years of experience specializing in sales of scientific instruments. SOQUELEC will serve as the sales representative agency for JEOL’s electron microscope product line throughout all of Canada. JEOL will benefit from SOQUELEC’s expanded sales team in the ...

January 22, 2021 - JEOL Ltd. (President & COO Izumi Oi) announces the release of a new cold field emission cryo-electron microscope (cryo-EM), the CRYO ARM™ 300 II (JEM-3300), to be released in January 2021. This new cryo-EM has been developed based on the concept of “Quick and easy to operate and get high-contrast and high-resolution images”. Product development background Recent dramatic improvement of resolution in single particle analysis (SPA) using cryo-EM has led to SPA as ...

January 7, 2021, Peabody, Mass. - JEOL USA awarded two Grand Prizes to winners of its 2020 Electron Microscopy Image Contest, and kicked off its 2021 Image Contest at the beginning of the new year. The annual contest showcases JEOL microscope users’ artistically or esthetically pleasing images with good composition, sharp focus, and technical competency, especially in the use of accelerating voltage. The Grand Prize Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) Image award was given to Lita ...
