Lacey Carbon Films on 200 Mesh Gold (Pack of 25)

Product Description

Lacey carbon films are similar to the holey carbon films in that they have open areas but because of the fine lacey mesh structure they offer a greater percentage of open area in comparison (see micrograph). They provide the thinnest possible support film while maintaining adequate strength and give practically no background interference in the TEM. As much of the specimen is unsupported, these films are appropriate for use where a structure free background is of importance. Lacey carbon films are particularly suitable for studying some nanotubes, acicular crystals and biological/materials specimens.

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

Exceptional Structural Support for TEM Imaging

The interconnected lacey carbon pattern provides reliable specimen support and exceptional electron transparency, facilitating high-contrast, high-resolution imaging. As the film is non-porous and hydrophobic, it reduces specimen drift and contamination, making it ideal for demanding research environments.


Precision-Engineered 200 Mesh Gold Grid

Each grid is fabricated from high-purity gold featuring a standard 200 mesh and a grid diameter of 3.05 mm. Gold provides superior chemical resistance and structural stability, enabling consistent performance during transmission electron microscopy. The grid ensures compatibility with standard TEM holders.


Suitable for a Broad Range of Applications

Lacey Carbon Films on gold grids are optimized for conventional and cryo-TEM applications, particularly where specimen integrity and resolution are paramount. Their stability and compatibility make them suitable for research labs, educational institutions, and industrial analysis.
