Higashimatsuyama, Saitama, Japan (Aug. 15, 2018): HREM Research Inc. introduced qDPC for DigitalMicrograph. The DPC (Differential Phase Contrast) is a technique to obtain a high contrast image from a phase object in STEM (Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope). The qDCP gives a boundary-artifact-free phase contrast image by integrating DPC signals contrary to the solution given by …

Higashimatsuyama, Saitama, Japan (Sept. 30, 2016): HREM Research Inc. introduced SmartAlign for DigitalMicrograph. The SmartAlign corrects slow instability of probe scanning system (scan distortion) from fast-acquisition multi-frame images using rigid and non-rigid image alignment. Thus, SmartAlign restores resolution before degradation, and improves image quality. Procedures of SmartAlign have been developed by Lewys Jones and Peter …
