Electron Microscopy Sciences has brought out the Aduro HT system for in situ electron microscopy.
The Aduro system, developed by Protochips, provides accurate and controlled sample heating.
It overcomes issues of thermal drift and slow responses in conventional heating stages and TEM holders.
The Aduro system replaces standard furnaces with an ultra-thin conductive ceramic membrane that simultaneously supports and heats the sample.
The low thermal mass of the ceramic membrane also allows for fast response times, up to 1,000,000C per second to temperatures up to 1200C.
The Aduro heating system offers excellent stability and true reaction-rate heating to enable novel in-situ experiments on any electron microscope, including sintering, rapid thermal cycling and lifetime testing, grain growth, phase changes, surface reactions and quenching, all at the highest resolution possible.
