Tuesday publication update! Have you ever thought about using a liquid cell for a vapor phase microscopy experiment? This new publication has! @Taylor Woehl at the University of Maryland has investigated the nucleation, growth, and evaporation of nanoscale sessile drops using vapor phase TEM (VPTEM) with the #PoseidonSelect. Nanoscale water condensation dynamics in strong electric … Read More
New Tuesday publication! In this publication featured in Nature, our #PoseidonSelect was used to look at crystals grown from high-energy precursors. Most of the time, these adopt metastable structures depending on the initial conditions, such as temperature, pressure or crystal size. With the unique environment created in the liquid cell, the formation of a hcp … Read More

We have a new Flash Talk ready for your viewing pleasure! Check out Dr. Vinavadini Ramnarain of IPCMS discuss visualizing in real-time of the prenucleation stages of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) formation. Calcium carbonate is one of the most significant biominerals in nature and an understanding of its formation pathways has great implication in the field … Read More
Tuesday publication update! In this recent publication by #PennsylvaniaStateUniversity human viruses were observed using the #PoseidonSelect system. Microwelled E-chips were used with different liquid thicknesses to observe the configuration of the adeno-associated virus (AAV). The improvement of the understanding of these biological entities can have a bread societal impact for human health and diseases, in … Read More
Tuesday publication update! Do you want to do heating and polymerization at the same time? In this publication the authors from the #NorthwesternUniversity used the #PoseidonSelect with its heating capabilities to polymerize different block copolymers at the nanoscale! Heating and cooling was applied to show the reversible process of polymerization. Interested? Read the paper! https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-26773-z … Read More
An additional Friday publication update! Researchers from Paris have recently published a beautiful #PoseidonSelect heating experiment on the growth of gold nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were grown at room temperatur and elevated temperatures, showing temperature dependent nanoparticle growth. Visualizing these thermal effects at the single nanoparticle level reveals how the competition between the growth speed and … Read More
Additional Friday publication update! Are you thinking on doing liquid cell electron microscopy, but you are also wondering about environmental processes? Please read this interesting review published in ACS Nano. In this review, dynamic processes using #liquidcell electron microscopy are being shown including nanotoxicological processes, pollution control, contamination transformation and radical corrosion in the environment. … Read More
