A high resolution scanning transmission electron microscope has been constructed and is operating. The initial task of this instrument is to attempt the sequencing of DNA by heavy-atom specific staining. It is also suitable for many other biological investigations requiring high resolution, low contamination and minimum radiation damage.The basic optical parameters are: 20 to 100 KV acceleration potential, objective lens focal length of 1.0 mm. with Cs = 0.7 mm., and two additional lenses designated as condensor and diffraction lenses. The purpose of the condensor lens is to provide a parallel beam incident to the objective, and the diffraction lens produces an image of the back focal plane of the objective in the plane of an annular detector.
