PURE SILICON ULTRASM® TEM WINDOWS Read more about the unique combination of enabling features and benefits here.
- Nanometer Thinness: thinner than the thinnest available carbon grids
- Plasma Cleanable: unlike carbon grids, can vigorously plasma clean to remove organic contamination
- Uniformity: reduced field-to-field variability
- Reduced Chromatic Blur: half the chromatic blur of carbon grids
- Nanometer-Scale Pores: allow stable suspension of nanoscale materials for imaging without background
- Silicon Composition: sputter-deposited, pure, intrinsic silicon
- Increased Stability: at high beam currents and high annealing temperatures
- Minimal Background Signal: enables elemental analyses of samples containing nitrogen and/or carbon
