Thanks for the reference.


I can't make sense of a thickness-independent contribution to the phase shift either. The way I see it even a surface layer of dipoles would lead to a constant MIP and a phase shift proportional to the thickness.

One can think of a simple model: A slab of completely neutral material (made of neutrons) covered in a layer of positive charge and outside that a layer of negative charge that balances the positive charge. The potential inside this slab will be constant and independent of the thickness of the slab.


I wonder if we can get a comment from someone who knows more.


All the best,


Philip

Hi Philip,

The mean inner potential (MIP) refers to a total "interaction" potential that is considered a material property. It consists of all the sources contributing to the potential well seen by an imaging electron, including those you suggest (nuclear and electronic contributions.)

Yes, physical changes to the surface via adsorbed matter will directly affect the MIP. I believe the working hypothesis for the source of the "Volta" potential is through heat/exposure related modification of surface adsorbates.

It is also interesting to note that in addition to the electronic character of the object, the surface contributions of adsorbates and heating, there is another thickness independent phase shift (at least for carbon) the source of which I am not clear on. Happy to hear an explanation from anyone in the know : )

Please have a look at this paper where all of the non-Volta contributions are discussed and also measured.

 Hi all.

I've been wondering what the mean inner electrostatic potential of a solid (for example the 10 V of carbon) is actually due to.
Is it purely caused by the distribution of nuclei and electrons in the solid itself or could there be a contribution from adsorbed surface charges?

All the best,

Philip

Dear 3D-EM group,

We are organizing a 2-day workshop on "Computational Cryo-EM" which will
take place at the Flatiron Institute, Simons Foundation, in New York City,
on August 8-9, 2019. This summer workshop revives a tradition started by
Joachim Frank and Gabor Herman many years ago. The topics will include:
advances in reconstruction algorithms, software implementations and
automation, motion correction, 2D/3D classification and continuous
heterogeneity analysis, and related mathematical results and new problems.
There will be 16 speakers in total, each giving 30-minute talks, in a
workshop setting which promotes the open exchange of ideas. In addition,
there will be a poster session.

For more information, including the list of confirmed speakers, see the
event website:

https://www.simonsfoundation.org/event/nyc-computational-cryo-em-summer-workshop/

To apply, please fill in the following registration form:

https://indico.flatironinstitute.org/e/CryoEM

Registration will be closed once we reach capacity, so please register soon
to guarantee your attendance.

On behalf of the organizing committee,

Joakim And?n (Flatiron)
Alex Barnett (Flatiron)
Leslie Greengard (Flatiron / NYU)
Roy Lederman (Yale)
Amit Singer (Princeton)
Marina Spivak (Flatiron)

Regards,
Cindy

Hi all,    wondering if anyone has heard/thought/dreamed of a side entry holder for clipped grids? This would be very useful in mixed company (of microscopes, of course), and could enable analysis of grids post-tomography by non-standard methods such as EDS. Perhaps someone has experience in modifying a 626 tip for the purpose?
regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,

I?ve discussed this with Chris Booth from Gatan some time ago, a multiple cartridge side entry holder will for sure also help a lot of people with side-entry screening systems, preparing for later data collection  in central facilities. With other people?s ideas for cheap side-entry low-kv screening tools, this could be quite a market.

Best,
