Prof. Armin Delong's vision

FOUNDER OF ELECTRON MICROSCOPY IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA (1925-2017)

In 1948, a team was formed to build the first electron microscope in Czechoslovakia. One of its four members was a student – Armin Delong. The team succeeded. Their benchtop electron microscope won a gold medal at EXPO Brussels in 1958 and became one of the world's most-produced EMs.
For Armin Delong, it was only the beginning. He believed that every scientist should have the opportunity to regularly use a transmission electron microscope to see deep within the objects of his or her research. Therefore, he made the development of an affordable TEM to his life project. And he succeeded again. We in Delong Instruments share not only the professor's name but also his vision. And that's why we have been developing and producing small transmission electron microscopes that fit into a regular lab and enable the teams of scientists worldwide to use their TEM day by day for their research.
