AXON Dose: Precision Dose Management For Reliable Results
The electron beam can profoundly influence sample behaviour, sometimes producing desired effects and sometimes introducing unwanted changes. Accurately understanding dose exposure across the sample at every stage of the experiment is essential for ensuring reliable results and reproducibility. AXON Dose is the first and only software of its kind that fully automates the calculation and recording of electron dose throughout the entire TEM workflow. By automating a traditionally labour-intensive and error-prone process, it establishes a new standard of reproducibility from one experiment to the next, and across multiple labs.
Examples using the AXON Dose module
VISUALIZE DOSE
Colourful dose overlays introduce an entirely new way to visualize dose exposure. Electron dose is measured on a pixel-by-pixel basis and tracked throughout the entire experiment for both TEM and STEM modes, ensuring a detailed, continuous record. Colorized maps highlight actual exposure levels and indicate when approaching critical thresholds.
IDENTIFY DOSE LIMITS
Tools like spot fading quickly pinpoint when and where the electron beam first contacts your sample, helping you understand the beam’s influence based on dose rate or cumulative dose. Once dose thresholds are identified, the software allows you to set warning indicators. Colourful dose overlays then provide clear alerts for approaching dose levels.
A BIRDS-EYE VIEW
The dose navigation pane shows a low-magnification view of the stage and the same colorized dose maps show where the beam has been previously. Move to pristine areas with a simple double-click in the navigation pane to quickly begin a new experiment
