Sol

For ATMOSPHERE AX

Controlled Illumination for Operando Photocatalytic TEM

Sol For atmosphere ax introduction

Sol is a brand-new member of the Atmosphere AX family, enabling light-driven reactions to be studied under pressurized, gaseous environments at the nanoscale. The highly-published Atmosphere AX now enables nanoscale studies for a new set of research areas.

Builds on the capabilities of Atmosphere AX: Supports the full capabilities of Atmosphere AX, like temperature control, gas pressure, compatibility, and mixing, enabling truly representative reaction environments.

 

Well-characterized photoillumination workflow: Holder and ex-situ calibration workflow optimized to quantify light power at the sample and maintain temperature accuracy, even during illumination.

 

Flexible light integration: User-exchangeable light source input allows use of various wavelengths, making Sol adaptable to diverse experimental needs. The holder is compatible with most Thermo Fisher and JEOL TEM platforms.

 

Seamless software integration: Photoillumination metadata is synchronized with experimental timelines using Protochips AXON machine vision software, reducing manual tasks and allowing you to focus on your research.

guide back to Atmosphere AX

The Atmosphere AX solution uses custom-made microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) as sample supports to add temperature within the environmental holder. All MEMS devices (E-chips™) are designed, fabricated, and quality checked in-house, which gives Protochips an immense amount of control and oversight to ensure quality and proper functionality as well as keep cost minimized.

 

Uniquely utilizing silicon carbide as a heating membrane instead of the traditional metal coil, Atmosphere E-chips provide superior uniformity and accuracy to other MEMS chips on the market.
