What are the Advantages of Using Cryogenic Techniques?
Cryogenic techniques offer several advantages in nanotechnology:
- Preservation of Native Structure: Samples maintain their native state without the need for chemical fixatives. - High Resolution: Techniques like cryo-EM provide near-atomic resolution imaging. - Controlled Environment: Low temperatures allow for controlled synthesis and manipulation of nanomaterials. - Long-term Storage: Samples can be stored for long periods without significant degradation.
