Quantifoil R1.2/1.3 Holey Carbon Films - Circular

Product Description

Quantifoil R1.2/1.3 Holey Carbon Films - Circular 

Quantifoils, produced by semiconductor lithographic techniques, are 15 - 20nm thick perforated carbon films with precise, well defined hole sizes, shapes and arrays. Quantifoil support films provide a high percentage of open area in addition to minimising total specimen thickness. Object distortions arising from interactions with the support film are also reduced. They are particularly suited for cryo applications, tomography and low dose microscopy (LEEP).

Circular hole, size 1.2µm dia, separation 1.3µm, pitch 2.5µm

Quantifoil type: R1.2/1.3

Quantifoils are supplied as 10 grids or 100 grids in a grid box.

Optimized Structure and Material

Each Quantifoil R1.2/1.3 grid features a precision-perforated carbon film on a metallic support grid, offering remarkable uniformity and stability. The regular pattern of 1.2 m holes ensures reproducible imaging conditions, while the amorphous carbon surface enhances sample adherence and distribution, essential for high-quality electron microscopy.


Compatible with Advanced Microscopy Techniques

Designed for use in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), the Quantifoil R1.2/1.3 can accommodate diverse sample types. Its electron transparency facilitates high contrast and structural analysis, making it suitable for cutting-edge research in biology, materials science, and nanotechnology fields.


Packaging and Shelf Life for Reliability

Grids are supplied in anti-static boxes containing multiple units, ensuring safe handling and long-term preservation. With indefinite shelf life under dry, dust-free storage, users can rely on the Quantifoil grids to maintain optimal surface quality and performance over time.
