A letter from QDUKI MD David Want and DENSsolutions CEO, Ben Bormans : Dear Customers and Researchers, Since 2014, DENSsolutions and Quantum Design UK and Ireland (QDUKI) have collaborated to serve the in situ TEM market in the UK and Ireland. When DENSsolutions entered the market in 2012, they wanted to implement a distribution model […]
Intuitive In Situ experiment control and automation software. Impulse 1.0 software gives researchers complete control over their stimuli. With Impulse, you can easily design your In Situ experiment from your desk. Decide which sample conditions you want to be met at which time and Impulse will do the rest. During your TEM experiment, Impulse will […]
Coloration of a copper surface by nanostructuring with femtosecond laser pulses Highlights Coloration of a copper by nanostructuring with femtosecond laser pulses was studied. Surface structures with low spatial frequency were formed. Surface topology on observed areas of different colours were investigated. SEM-images were taken in secondary electron and backscattered electron mode. Reasons for the […]

NanoMEGAS are looking to help you extend the capabilities of your TEM beyond traditional electron diffraction techniques. Featured Product: […]
In recent years there has been a huge interest in the nm scale characterisation of various materials (Minerals, Zeolites, MOFS, Aperiodic crystals, Archeological artefacts, Functional materials, Organic Pharmaceuticals, Proteins etc.). You will be shown the use of 3D Electron Diffraction (3D-ED) in the Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and present various examples demonstrating the application of […]
We thought we’d make it easy for you to watch some of our latest webinars, so here is a round up of ones you catch watch right now and also book in for future planned webinars and online events.
WATCH NOW The combination of different analytical methods into one instrument is of great importance for the simultaneous acquisition of complementary information. Especially highly localised probing of mechanical, electrical, magnetic, chemical and crystallographic properties on the nanoscale represents a key success factor for gaining new insights in the micro and nano world. In this webinar, […]
Improved Focused Ion Beam lamella preparation Sample preparation is one of the most important steps in any TEM experiment, especially if you’re working with FIB lamellas. Now we share with you the latest developments on our FIB stub. This new version is improved in multiple ways to make your sample preparation easier, safer and quicker. 5 reasons to get […]
Original article by Jennifer Cookman, Victoria Hamilton, Louise S. Price, Simon R. Hall and Ursel Bangert. Published in Nanoscale, issue 7, 2020. Scientists characterise how flufenamic acid, a COX inhibitor, which is used in multiple industries, forms crystals from a liquid solution The earliest stages of crystal growth are key to determining the final structure […]
A new paper recently published reports the integration of the GETec atomic force microscope (AFSEM) into a helium ion microscope (HIM). Combining the two techniques opens the way for unprecedented, in situ, correlative analysis at the nanoscale.
