Stream in situ TEM liquid biasing and heating series

from DENSsolutions

The Stream in situ TEM liquid biasing and heating series allows imaging of materials and biological samples in a contained MEMS based Nano-Cell with in-situ biasing and temperatures up to 100 °C.

The patented Nano-Cell design and pressure based pump ensure the sample is fully hydrated and the liquid can be accurate controlled in either a static or flowing condition.

Features

No dry, fix or freeze of samples required
Nano-Cell integrity test station included
Feed tubing replaceable by user
Nano-Cell static and flow modes
Biologically compatible
Patented Nano-Cell design
Accurate liquid flow control due to pressure based pump
Biasing with 3 electrodes
Temperatures up to 100 °C
Pressure up to 2000 mbar

Further information

All DENSsolutions systems use patented Nano-Chip MEMS Technology

Nano-Chips are state-of-the-art functional sample carriers that replace traditional TEM Cu grids. Based on Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), they offer the unique ability to expand your application space and control the environment and stimuli locally on the Nano-Chip. Each Nano-Chip creates a micro-scale laboratory environment within your TEM. Due to its very low mass and minimal power consumption, the response times are extremely fast and performance highly reliable.

Unique MEMS Design for Optimal Stability

Nano-Chips are fabricated to ensure a stable, chemically inert and electrically insulated environment.

Controllable Response

Easy-to-use software for operational modes and complete data logging.

Application Specific Fabrication

A range of Nano-Chip support film options to suit all application requirements.

"In-situ TEM provides a new dimension in dynamic structural studies of a range of technologically important materials. The Department of Materials at Oxford will use the DENSsolutions sample heating holder in a number of projects related to catalysis and low dimensional carbon materials. We have chosen this solution for its unrivaled stability and control."
