Element maps of a semiconductor device, using STEM EELS spectrum imaging data. The model-based fitting approach separates overlapping edges clearly and generates maps with superior signal-to-noise ratio. The EELS routines are carefully optimised for speed, giving you virtually instant results.
Guided Workflow
The guided workflow begins by choosing your technique, with simplified device control, data acquisition and analysis. When you select a technique (left) the interface expands to guide you through the technique, from top to bottom (right).

Linear Least Squares Fitting
Least squares fitting by multiple linear least squares and non-linear least squares fitting is a core workflow for advanced analytical data processing in Gatan Microscopy Suite. This webinar provides a detailed overview of the new tool, with a variety of example applications.
Model-Based EELS Quantification & ELNES Phase Mapping
Built on the existing model-based EELS quantification framework, ELNES phase mapping enables pre-acquired reference spectra (or standards) to be used for quantification in addition to the existing set of calculated cross-section models. This significantly improves the accuracy of the final quantification results by providing truer edge shapes that can be fitted over large energy ranges. ELNES phase mapping also enables the separation and quantification of material phases, by importing multiple reference spectra for the same ionisation edge and using them concurrently.
Python Integration
Scripting capabilities provide a high degree of customisation for new acquisition or processing methods. Python integration is now built directly into GMS 3, enabling Python code to be run directly from the existing scripting interface. All native Gatan data objects and existing hardware controls are directly accessible in Python code. This unlocks endless possibilities for data capture, processing, analysis and visualisation.
