Unfiltered Image

An unfiltered image contains both elastic and inelastically scattered electrons and is acquired with no energy-selecting slit inserted. When you obtain an unfiltered image, it is useful as an accompaniment with zero-loss imaging.

 

  1. To acquire an unfiltered image, only specify the camera parameters.
  2. Access to the Configure Unfiltered Image dialog will vary based on your chosen mode.
    1. SingleMap – Press the Select Unfiltered button
    2. MultiMap – Specify in the MultiMap Configuration dialog
Configure Unfiltered Image dialog
   
  1. Indicate parameters within the Acquire Unfiltered Image dialog.
    • Window Settings – Specify the energy loss (0 eV) and slit width (None) for the filter
    • Detector – Specify the detector settings you want to use
  2. Click Capture.
