Electron Microscopy Sciences Graphene on 2000 Mesh Cu Grid, 2 layers, 0.7 nm thick, 92.7% Transparency
CVD graphene on microporous copper TEM grids with beryllium-copper support aperture. The graphene film appears as a near-transparent to light-grey film on the surface of the red-brown microporous copper TEM grid. For support, the TEM grid is attached using epoxy to a gold-colored beryllium-copper disk with a 2 x 1 mm aperture. Graphene coverage of the TEM grid is better than 75 percent.
Layers: 2 layers
Thickness: 0.7 nm
Transparency: 92.7%
Electron Microscopy Sciences Lacey Carbon Film with Carbon/Formvar 1 nm / 5 nm thick on 200 mesh Nickel Grid
The continuous ultrathin carbon/formvar film on lacey carbon allows for the thinnest support film that still has adequate strength to withstand electron microscope specimen preparation. The carbon 1 nm, formvar 5 nm film lies across a carbon lacey film supported by a mesh grid. The size of the holes in the lacey film differ widely from batch to batch but are generally in the range of ¼ µm to 5µm, which gives the equivalent support of at least 6000 mesh grid.
Specimen material lying over the covered holes can be imaged in the TEM with practically no interference from the carbon film supporting it. This product is ideal for looking at nanotubes, virus particles and other small particulate material.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Formvar/Carbon Film 15-20 nm/3-4 nm thick on Single 600 µm hole Copper Grid
A formvar coated grid, stabilized with evaporated carbon film. This type of coating is excellent for specimen support, especially for ultra thin sections. Coated grids are optically checked followed by batch testing in the electron microscope. Packed in grid storage box. NOTE: All film is laid on the shiny side of the grid. Formvar is 15 to 20 nm thick with a 3 to 4 nm carbon coating.

Electron Microscopy Sciences Quantifoil Holey SiO2 Film R 1/4, Gold 400 mesh Grid
QUANTIFOIL is a perforated Silicon dioxide SiO2 support foil with pre-defined hole size, shape and arrangement. Used in cryo-electron microscopy where the carbon film should be outside the frame of the image. 1 µm hole and 5 µm period.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Quantifoil Holey Carbon Film R 5/10 on Nickel 400 mesh Grid
QUANTIFOIL is a perforated support foil with pre-defined hole size, shape and arrangement. It has advantages in electron microscopy (EM) or low-energy electron point source (LEEPS) microscopy when compared with conventional holey film.
QUANTIFOIL with circular holes is used in cryo-electron tomographic reconstruction. The roundness of the holes is advantageous with respect to the formation of an ice layer of constant thickness. The whole size chosen depends on the magnification used, and on whether or not one wishes to include support film in the image. Assessment of the image quality is easier when foil is included in the picture, because the power spectrum of a foil is stronger than that of unsupported ice.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Quantifoil Holey Carbon Film R 1.2/21.2 on Nickel 300 mesh Grid
