LVEM installed at
the
University of Michigan Materials
Science and Engineering Department
June, 2007 - The LVEM5 in the laboratory of Dr. David Martin is to
be used in the observation of
polymers and nanostructures. The
installation marks a return of the
LVEM5 to the University of Michigan
as Dr. Martin was an instrumental
beta user of the system. We thank
Dr. Martin for his expert insights
on polymers, electron microscopy of
materials and the LVEM5 interface
with both these areas of importance.

Delong America marks with sadness
the death of James Hillier
January 23, 2007 –
Delong America marks with sadness
the death of James Hillier, a
pioneer in the field of electron
optics.
Dr. Hillier was instrumental in
designing electron microscopes for
practical use by the scientific
community – and was an advocate in
the early years for its adoption.
We mourn his passing as we salute
his accomplishments and recognize
that were it not for his work our
industry would be far from where it
is today.
For more information on Dr. Hillier,
please visit the website of The
James Hillier Foundation at

The Scripps Research
Institute LVEM5 heading to new home
in Level 3 Bio Safety Laboratory…
January, 2007
– The LVEM5 at the Scripps
Research Institute is being
transferred to be used in
observation of viruses in a BSL
level 3 facility. Stay tuned for
exciting results from this program…

LVEM
installed in Howard
University’s
NanoExpress mobile laboratory van
October, 2006 – The
LVEM5 was installed in the
Nanoexpress at
Howard University.
The Nanoexpress, a mobile
nanotechnology laboratory also
contains an AFM, a chemical handling
section, a furnace and other
laboratory peripherals – all in a
van! The decision to add the LVEM5
in place of a standard SEM was made
when the program leader, Dr. Gary
Harris, become aware of the
existence of the LVEM5, a fully
functional benchtop electron
microscope with TEM, SEM and STEM
modes. For more information on the
LVEM5 and the Nanoexpress click

LVEM
installed at Emory/Georgia Tech
Biomedical Technology Center
August, 2006 -
The LVEM5 in the Emory/Georgia Tech
Biomedical Technology Center is to
be used by a number of research
groups for both its TEM and SEM
capabilities. Stay tuned for more
news from this ambitious group of
researchers.

LVEM
installed at the
University
of
Montreal's
Pathology & Cell Biology Department
June, 2006 – The LVEM5
was installed at the
University of Montreal’s
Pathology and Cell Biology
department and will be under the
direction of Dr. Moise Bendyan. The
lab members that will use the LVEM5
are already experts in conventional
TEM and look forward to the
convenience of having a dedicated
TEM & SEM right in their lab and to
ultra high contrast imaging with the
LVEM5 for their cell biology
research.

LVEM
installed at Howard University
Chemical Engineering Department
May, 2006 – A new
version LVEM5 was installed in the
Chemical Engineering Department at
Howard University.
Dr. James Mitchell’s research
demanded that an electron microscope
be installed in a clean room where
his research would include materials
characterization using both SEM and
TEM modes. The small benchtop
footprint of the LVEM5 provided the
TEM and SEM functionality at a
fraction of the space that a
conventional SEM or TEM would
require. For more information on
this please
