TEM Processing Software There are many variables to control and record during an in situ TEM experiment and the AXON machine vision software platform provides automation without taking away control: - Automatically calculate the laser settings - Live physical drift correction - Constant parameter recording and indexing (TEM, camera, and in situ parameters) - Real-time electron dose calculations - Electron dose exposure tracking and mapping - Continuous recording for instant look-back. You leave the TEM lab with a fully drift corrected and metadata-aligned dataset with all parameters recorded, notes integrated, and ready for trend analysis and movie creation. - Learn faster - Share easier - Publish sooner - Increase reproducibility - Spend less time and money at the TEM - RDM/FAIR compliant

Atmosphere AX v10.8.7 Product Release Notes September 5th, 2025 Protochips is excited to introduce Atmosphere AX v10.8.7, which brings a variety of improvements and bug fixes to the in-situ software package. Any users running a prior version of Atmosphere AX or Clarity for Atmosphere 210 with an active license are eligible for this free update. Below are the major features affected by this release: What is new in Version 10.8.7 What is new: - Now supporting RGA synchronization of Pressure vs. Time and Analog scans controlled through the SRS RGASoft v4.3.1. 22 new data columns for Gas 1-10 AMU, Gas 1-10 Pressure, RGA Total Pressure and raw analog scan data. Complete integration with AXON software to correlate RGA byproduct measurements against images and data such as thermal, dose, beam conditions and all other data streams. What’s Improved: - Improved the turbo max operating temperature from 40°C to 45°C. - Updated TMP logging for field diagnostics. - Updated code signing for anti-virus software screening. - Improved toggle switches in Gas Analyzer panel so that the gas analyzer can be turned on and off without rippling into turbo behavior. - Improved turbo safety monitoring with new setting for acceptable foreline pressure: “TMPMaxPumpOnPressure”, defaulted to 7 Torr. - Improved turbo communication error and reset states. - Improved end experiment process with a dedicated step to spin down the turbo with modal dialogue. - Improved diagnostic report bundle. What’s Fixed: - Fixed Continous Pumping so that it persists through gas flow experiments until turned off by the user. - Fixed Data View selections for systems that are not equipped with the turbo or gas analyzer. - Fixed open-loop gas flow control to prevent adjustments during flow experiments. - User settings will persist through software updates. - License file reference will persist through software updates. - Fixed flow control offset setting behavior when changing mid-experiment for 760Torr and 250Torr. - Corrected turbo current and power unit conversions in AXON webservice. - Fixed Check Cleanliness routine so that it doesn’t open V3 and H33 during process and back’s the turbo with the scroll pump throughout duration.

Sol for Atmosphere AX offers specialized E-chips for both in situ photo-illumination experiments and ex situ power density characterization. Sol E-chips have been optimized to ensure maximum power density at the sample location, providing flexibility to study many different types of light-sensitive reactions. Sol calibration E-chips are dedicated to the ex situ power density characterization workflow and consist of a window-only E-chip paired with a membrane-free, aluminum-coated aperture E-chip. When used with the holder in the ex situ power characterization station, these calibration components account for optical losses through the silicon nitride window and enable accurate measurement of the power density experienced by the sample.
