@George200kV there’s even multiple color themes to choose from, including dark mode!

@beamshift and that’s exactly why I love their controls

The skeuomorphism of making the valves look like LEDs on a panel, then the evolution to illustrating each type of valve… it’s that special JEOL touch

@0xJirachi no oil no mess no stress

what are your fav vacuum pumps? we got this one

@namankatyal14 Electrons as seen on phosphor viewing screens

@beamshift Electrons? I am not seeing wild correctly.

electrons in the wild

@endless_sine i assembled a few magnetic gridfinity sets, press-fit only works w slightly modified baseplate holes and gluing is annoying but the containers magnetically snapping into place was soooo satisfying

@beamshift still thinking about it.. might be fine without them actually

sorry for not posting my resources are going towards playing ultrakill and printing gridslop

it’s Tubesday! nvm it’s water line wednesday

open beam featuring the glasgow interface explorer

@IDV_FPV that looks really clean so i have to ask, what paste did you use and what’s the cleaning solution?

Before -> During -> After, PCB cleaning.

@jwt0625 🫡 great idea, real quality of life improvement

im pissed off enough time by the horrible UI these journals have esp. you have to download the SI videos to watch them, and sometimes they have cursed format and encoding, so here is an extension to load the video inline as well as converting it using ffmpeg if needed

I'm with @Zeptobars and we're going to try a FIB (focused ion beam) edit on a @tinytapeout chip. Here's the incredible machine that can do it...

@mooreth42 it’s made of watermelon jolly rancher

@beamshift I love any tool that looks like hard candy.

got new ones

ideological ferromagnetism

@vivposts ooh EELs for what?

Targeted ads are getting pretty good. Ideally they would know that I'm currently looking for EELS characterization though

there’s kinda a common theme here - get higher resolution out of a cheaper microscope with redundant sampling and computation

4D-STEM-in-SEM is pretty neat! gold lattice images from a 20kV CFEG SEM, modified for STEM with a mini projector lens and pixelated detector. spherical aberration doesn’t limit resolution in ptychographic reconstruction, so you don’t need a probe corrector to resolve atoms

Researchers at UCLA show you don’t need a dedicated cryo-EM to get world-class results. Using an adapted entry-level TEM, they achieved 1.95 Å apoferritin—comparable to top-tier systems—pointing to a more accessible future for cryo-EM. Read more: doi.org/10.1093/mam/oz…

schematic from C16910 streak camera manual. this thing images light pulses down to ~800fs, by converting light to photoemission electrons, rapidly deflecting the electrons to spread out the pulse in space, and then converting electrons back to photons on a phosphor screen.
