About Protochips
Protochips: Revolutionizing In Situ Electron Microscopy
Protochips is a leading provider of in situ electron microscopy solutions that enable researchers to study samples under natural conditions. The company's innovative products and sample supports allow for accurate quantitative measurement of samples, accelerating the characterization process and providing valuable insights into the behavior of materials at the nanoscale.
Founded in 2002 by David Nackashi and Ryan Murphy, Protochips has quickly become a trusted partner for researchers across a wide range of industries, including materials science, life sciences, and electronics. The company's mission is to empower scientists with the tools they need to push the boundaries of knowledge and drive innovation forward.
At Protochips, we understand that traditional electron microscopy techniques have limitations when it comes to studying dynamic processes or samples that are sensitive to changes in temperature or pressure. That's why we've developed a range of in situ TEM solutions that allow researchers to observe their samples under natural conditions.
Our flagship product is the Poseidon Select liquid cell system, which enables real-time imaging of liquid samples at high resolution. With its unique design features such as an ultra-thin silicon nitride membrane window and customizable flow channels, this system allows for precise control over sample environment while maintaining optimal imaging quality.
In addition to our liquid cell systems, we also offer a variety of other sample supports designed for specific applications such as heating/cooling experiments or gas reactions. Our E-chip platform provides electrical contacts within an environmental chamber allowing users to perform electrical measurements on their specimens while observing them with TEM.
At Protochips we pride ourselves on our commitment to customer satisfaction. We work closely with our clients throughout every stage of their research projects - from initial consultation through installation and training - ensuring they have all the support they need along the way.
Our team consists of experts in materials science, engineering, physics and chemistry who are passionate about advancing scientific discovery through cutting-edge technology development.
