Detector wins prestigious microscopy innovation award
Oxford Instruments is proud to announce that its Unity detector has been recognised as one of the ten best microscopy innovations of the year by the 2024 Microscopy Today Innovation Awards. These celebrate outstanding advancements in microscopy and microanalysis that offer signifi cant benefi ts to the scientifi c community. Winners are chosen based on the impact and utility of their innovations, particularly those that introduce more effi cient, or entirely new analytical methods.
Making its debut at M&M2023 the Unity BEX imaging detector introduces a ground breaking analytical technique, BEX, which captures and merges backscattered electron (BSE) and X-ray signals simultaneously. This capability enables users to instantly view both the microstructure and chemical composition of samples in vivid, high-resolution colour images.
A standout feature of Unity, is its advanced design, which situates the BSE and X-ray sensors directly beneath the electron microscope (EM) pole piece. This confi guration facilitates delivery of comprehensive topographic, crystallographic, atomic number and elemental data through a high-resolution visual output. Its intuitive interface lets users seamlessly explore sample details, enhancing complex sample analyses.
Haithem Mansour, BEX Product Manager, expressed his appreciation for the recognition: “Being acknowledged by Microscopy Today, a publication of the well-respected Microscopy Society of America (MSA), is a great honour. It affi rms the signifi cant advancement that Unity represents in SEM analytical technology and highlights the important role it plays in enhancing the capabilities of modern microscopy.”
