Quantifiably Better In Situ Electron Microscopy with Protochips' Heating and Electrical Biasing and Liquid Cell Platforms
|
|
(Nanowerk News) Protochips designs products for today’s leaders discovering tomorrow’s technology solutions to world problems. Protochips advanced in situ electron microscopy with the Aduro™ 300 heating and electrical biasing platform. Now the Poseidon™ 500 electrochemistry liquid cell platform, pushes further. Protochips will demo these products with world-renowned speakers at M&M 2012 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Better In Situ Microscopy
|
|
Aduro is a scalable platform for quantitative electron microscopy of micro and nanomaterials. It revolutionizes the analytical capabilities of electron microscopes by enabling in situ experimentation at temperatures up to 1200 °C while maintaining atomic resolution. It’s the first commercially viable solution for real-time, dynamic thermal and electrical studies in a fast and versatile high-resolution system. The Aduro 300 is easy to use and includes a double-tilt option.

Poseidon is a scalable platform for quantitative in situ electron microscopy of hydrated species. It allows researchers to image materials and biological samples within a fully-hydrated environment dynamically and in real time. Through a Metrohm™ partnership, the Autolab™ electrochemistry system is incorporated into Poseidon 500. A precision electric option for very-low-current analysis is available.
