Protochips Introduces a Standard Reference Electrode Solution for Electrochemistry in the TEM

In situ electron microscopy in a liquid cell is a powerful tool for examining and analyzing electrochemical reactions at the nanoscale. The confined spacing in an electron microscope can present a challenge in miniaturizing a standard benchtop experiment, and consequently, the correlation to bulk scale results can become more complicated.

Protochips is excited to offer a new solution that incorporates a standard reference electrode in our Poseidon Electrochemical experiments. This method brings the reference electrode outside the microscope and delivers a new level of flexibility, allowing standard off the shelf electrodes like Silver/Silver Chloride to easily be used and interchanged.
