TL;DR: Two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) have emerged as highly conductive and stable materials, of promise for electronic applications, and in situ electric biasing and transmission electron microscopy are used to investigate the effect of surface termination and intercalation on electronic properties.

TL;DR: This new MEMS-based sample carrier for transmission electron microscopy enables energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) acquisition in the TEM up to an unmatched temperature of 1000 °C, with a drift rate down to 0.1 nm/min.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the development of microheaters and provide a series of design guidelines for thermoelectromechanical design aspects, such as mechanical and thermal stress, temperature accuracy and homogeneity, power consumption, response time, and sample drift.

TL;DR: In this paper, the temperature distribution in a 300 μm microelectromechanical system nano-reactor with a resolution of ca. 10 μm was mapped using luminescence thermometry, and the observed temperature heterogeneities can explain differences observed in the reduction behavior of Co-based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst particles.

TL;DR: The Stream Liquid Heating Holder as discussed by the authors is a complete system for liquid phase experiments at elevated temperature inside the transmission electron microscope, which features a unique on-chip flow channel combined with a microheater, enabling direct flow over the imaging area and rapid replenishment of the solution inside the nanocell with simultaneous heating to more than 100 °C.
