A method for measuring the local gas pressure within a gas-flow stage in situ in the transmission electron microscope

Journal Article Colby, Robert J. ; Alsem, Daan H. ; Liyu, Andrey V. ; ... - Ultramicroscopy, 153:55-60

The development of environmental transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has enabled in situ experiments in a gaseous environment with high resolution imaging and spectroscopy. Addressing scientific challenges in areas such as catalysis, corrosion, and geochemistry can require pressures much higher than the ~20 mbar achievable with a differentially pumped, dedicated environmental TEM. Gas flow stages, in which the environment is contained between two semi-transparent thin membrane windows, have been demonstrated at pressures of several atmospheres. While this constitutes significant progress towards operando measurements, the design of many current gas flow stages is such that the pressure at the sample cannot necessarilymore »« less

Improvement of windowed type environmental-cell transmission electron microscope for in situ observation of gas-solid interactions

Journal Article Kawasaki, Tadahiro ; PRESTO-JST, 4-1-8 Honcho, Kawaguchi, Saitama 332-0012 ; Ueda, Kouta ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

We have developed an improved, windowed type environmental-cell (E-cell) transmission electron microscope (TEM) for in situ observation of gas-solid interactions, such as catalytic reactions at atmospheric pressure. Our E-cell TEM includes a compact E-cell specimen holder with mechanical stability, resulting in smoother introduction of the desired gases compared with previous E-cell TEMs. In addition, the gas control unit was simplified by omitting the pressure control function of the TEM pre-evacuation chamber. This simplification was due to the successful development of remarkably tough thin carbon films as the window material. These films, with a thickness of <10 nm, were found tomore »« less

Performing In Situ Closed-Cell Gas Reactions in the Transmission Electron Microscope

Journal Article Unocic, Kinga A. ; Hensley, Dale K. ; Walden, Franklin S. ; ... - Journal of Visualized Experiments

Gas reactions studied by in situ electron microscopy can be used to capture the real-time morphological and microchemical transformations of materials at length scales down to the atomic level. In situ closed-cell gas reaction (CCGR) studies performed using (scanning) transmission electron microscopy (STEM) can separate and identify localized dynamic reactions, which are extremely challenging to capture using other characterization techniques. For these experiments, we used a CCGR holder that utilizes microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based heating microchips (hereafter referred to as "E-chips"). The experimental protocol described here details the method for performing in situ gas reactions in dry and wet gases inmore »« less

Localized resistance measurements of wrinkled reduced graphene oxide using in-situ transmission electron microscopy

Journal Article Nilsson, Hanna M. ; de Knoop, Ludvig ; Cumings, John ; ... - Carbon

The tunable electrical properties of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) make it an ideal candidate for many applications including energy storage. However, in order to utilize the material for applications it is essential to understand the behavior of the material on the nanoscale, especially how naturally occurring phenomena like wrinkling affect the electronic transport. Here, we use a transmission electron microscope (TEM) with electrical probe in-situ holder to perform localized electrical measurements on wrinkled, supported rGO flakes. The TEM allows for observation of the local wrinkled structure of the rGO and simultaneously an electrical probe is used to perform localized resistancemore »« less
