The live cells sample of cyanobacteria in trityl solution. (a) Schematic drawing of the glass sample holder, prepared using photolithography. Typical dimensions of the sample holder are: a = 3.8 mm, b = 250 μm, c = 22 mm, and d = 1.6 mm. (b) Schematic drawing of the matching glass cover used to seal the sample, apart from a small air outlet. Typical dimensions for the cover are: e = 100 μm, f = 2 mm. (c) Optical photo of a typical sample after preparation (shown from the side). The cyanobacteria are at the bottom while the trityl solution is around and above them.
