I’m glad to let you know the STEM is back and operational.

STEM in Electron Optics
The FEI Titan Themis STEM is unavailable from May 18 to possibly May 25.
I’m troubleshooting it this Thursday and Friday and the service engineer is coming next week.

We may keep using the TEM as we’re still troubleshooting. The PC shutdown is not going to harm the microscope.
We will compute time if you have a shutdown during the TEM session.
We hope it will be fixed soon soon.

The FEI Titan Themis STEM is down again. Something is causing the microscope PC to shutdown.
We’re still troubleshooting it and have new cards installed in the PC today.
Hopefully it will fix the problem.

The FEI Titan Themis STEM is back operational.
The microscope PC stayed on the last couple of days and everything else looks good.

For some reason the microscope PC on the Titan Themis STEM is shutting off intermittently.
We will have a ThermoFisher engineer come to the STEM Lab to get it fixed.
Also, there will be two power outages next week, so the Titan Themis STEM will be unavailable from April 25th to May 5th.
Apologies,
Erico Freitas
The stage issue from January was fixed. The instrument is operational and available for use.
There is an issue with the stage of the TEM that is preventing it from changing X, Y, and Z coordinates.
The service engineer should be on site next Tuesday Jan. 17 to get that fixed.
I hope the TEM will be back by Thursday next week.
Regards,
Erico Freitas
The STEM is available for use. Please limit participants in the room to 2.
The STEM is currently down for repair. The rooftop chiller requires a new power supply. MTU Facilities is working on the project. However, at this time we do not have an estimated completion date. I will send out an update when we know more.
