Fig. 1. Overview of new multiwindow devices for improved LC-TEM.

Fig. 1

(A) Standard commercially available nanofluidic device with a single 200 × 50–μm window centered on the device (black arrow). (B) Schematic of available imaging area when devices from (A) are assembled with windows oriented perpendicular to each other. (C) Custom nanofluidic device with five windows of 50 μm width (black arrow). Gold spacer material can be seen on the devices (white arrow). (D) Schematic of available imaging area when devices from (B) are assembled with windows oriented perpendicular to each other, where a 5 × 5 grid of windows is created. (E) Nanofluidic devices from (C) that have been patterned with Au grid bars (orange arrow) crossing the windows for use as focusing aids. (F) Schematic of available imaging area when devices from (E) are assembled with windows oriented perpendicular to each other. Grid bars are shown bisecting the center of each window for focusing applications. Scale bar represents 1 mm for (A), (C), and (E), whereas (B), (D), and (F) are illustrations of window overlaps not shown to scale.
