Overview
The Protochips Atmosphere holder enables in-situ observation of gas-phase reactions within the TEM column. Using sealed MEMS-based E-chips, it allows controlled gas environments (up to 3 gases at 1 atm) while heating the specimen up to 1000 °C.
Applications
- Oxidation and reduction processes
- Catalytic reaction observation
- CVD / VD growth studies
- Ostwald ripening under gas atmosphere
