ABSTRACT

The Triton AX from Protochips is an in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) solution, purpose-built for electrochemical studies across an extensive temperature range (-50 °C to 300 °C). Designed for advanced research in batteries, electrocatalysts, corrosion, and nanomaterial synthesis, Triton AX uniquely integrates heating, cooling, and electrochemistry within a liquid environment. This enables real-time nanoscale observations of temperature-dependent phenomena under operationally relevant conditions.

By facilitating studies of batteries in cold climates, optimizing fuel cell catalysts, and accelerating corrosion processes, Triton AX drives the innovation of more durable, efficient, and cost-effective materials. The cooling feature also minimizes electron beam damage, enabling the analysis of beam-sensitive samples.

Seamlessly integrated with Protochips' AXON software, Triton AX streamlines data collection, synchronization, and dose quantification while delivering metadata-rich datasets that capture the complete experimental timeline. AXON’s offline processing tools further enhance collaboration, offering an intuitive interface with advanced analysis capabilities.

This presentation will explore the innovative capabilities of Triton AX with AXON machine vision software, its operational features, and its transformative impact on key application areas.
