Quantifoil R3.5/1 Holey Carbon Films - Circular

Product Description

Quantifoil R3.5/1 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 3.5µm dia, separation 1µm, pitch 4.5µm.

Quantifoil type: R3.5/1

Quantifoils are supplied as 10 grids in a grid box.

Precision Engineering for Optimal TEM Imaging

Quantifoil R3.5/1 films employ a precisely patterned hexagonal array of round holes, maximizing usable area and electron transparency. The regular geometry and thin film enhance sample adherence and minimize background noise, resulting in superior imaging quality.


Compatibility and Versatile Applications

Designed for broad compatibility, these holey carbon films support leading transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) and are suitable for cryo-EM, general life science research, and advanced materials science investigations. The copper or gold grids accommodate diverse experimental needs.


Handling and Storage Recommendations

To ensure integrity and performance, Quantifoil films should be handled with anti-static tools in a clean, dust-free environment. Storage at room temperature and dry conditions helps maintain the films high purity and structural consistency for reliable results.
