Direct Electron

Direct Electron designs, manufactures, and delivers next-generation direct detection cameras for electron microscopy. Our vision—Innovation Propelling Discovery—is focused on empowering our customers to efficiently and continually expand the frontiers of science.

Over the past 15 years, our pioneering Direct Detection Device (DDD®) camera technology has driven a "resolution revolution" in electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM). Now, we continue to aggressively push the boundaries of EM camera technology for a broad range of applications--from biology to materials science--through both research and development in collaboration with public organizations, academia, and industry. The result is powerful technology with unique features that help users do better science, faster.
