Holey Carbon Films on 300 Mesh Gold (Pack of 50)

Product Description

Holey carbon films have many uses in microscopy but for certain applications the mesh sizes of standard TEM grids are too large to support the sample. Continuous carbon films can also be a problem due to the fact that the thin film can inelastically scatter electrons and contribute to background noise. Holey carbon films therefore are a suitable alternative.
Holey carbon films have holes of various sizes up to 100m. In addition to providing support, the increased image contrast in the regions of the holes compared to regions of film is also of benefit. Typical applications include biological and materials science and cryo-TEM.

Supplied as 25 or 50 grids in a grid box.
Holey carbon support films can be applied to other grid sizes, material or type. Further details available on request.

Exceptional Imaging Support for TEM Analysis

Designed for demanding electron microscopy applications, these holey carbon films on gold grids provide exceptional sample support while maintaining ultra-high transparency for electrons. The random hole distribution enables suspended regions, essential for imaging fine details in biological and materials science specimens. Their ultrathin structure minimizes sample background, maximizing image quality.


Reliable, Ultra-Pure Materials for Maximum Performance

Manufactured from pure carbon film supported by a 300 mesh gold grid, these grids meet EM-grade standards. The gold is >99.99% pure, delivering high electrical conductivity and chemical resistance. The carbon film, with neutrality and non-poisonous characteristics, is ideal for delicate samples, and the supplied grids are particle-free for immediate use, ensuring consistent, reproducible results.
