<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue"">I am collecting data with 2nm ultrathin carbon coated Quantifoil holy grids and observing excessive/abnormal drift/motion in images which I did not see with regular Quantifoil
grids or other type of grids. There is no indication of the microscope as the cause of drift/motion. I am curious if anyone else has also observed the similar motion/drift with 2nm ultrathin carbon coated grids. FFTs w/ and w/o drift/motion are attached as
references. Any feedback insight will be appreciated.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
