Energy filtered transmission electron microscopy has the potential to provide high resolution, spatially resolved, atomic and chemical information. However, aberrations generated by the electron spectrometer blur the energy resolution and limit the atomic or molecular distributions that can be studied. Energy absorptions corresponding to the visible light range fall below an energy loss of 5 eV. The selection of electrons that have lost an amount of energy corresponding to chromophore absorption by the sample thus requires a spectrometer with a high energy resolution over the full image plane. A corrected prism-mirror-prism filter that has a resolution of 1.1 eV, sufficient to select these low energy loss electrons, was developed and installed by us in a Zeiss EM902. Its imaging capability was verified for a number of different chromophores. The chromophore currently under study is that of the green fluorescent protein (GFP).
