EIGER detector: application in macromolecular crystallography
The development of single-photon-counting detectors, such as the PILATUS, has been a major recent breakthrough in macromolecular crystallography, enabling noise-free detection and novel data-acquisition modes. The new EIGER detector features a pixel size of 75 × 75 µm, frame rates of up to 3000 Hz and a dead time as low as 3.8 µs. An EIGER 1M and EIGER 16M were tested on Swiss Light Source beam...
متن کاملCapturing dynamics with Eiger, a fast-framing X-ray detector
Eiger is the next-generation single-photon-counting pixel detector following the widely used Pilatus detector. Its smaller pixel size of 75 µm × 75 µm, higher frame rate of up to 22 kHz, and practically zero dead-time (~4 µs) between exposures will further various measurement methods at synchrotron sources. In this article Eiger's suitability for X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) is ...
متن کاملElectron crystallography – an introduction
Everything in Nature, macroscopic or microscopic, inorganic, organic or biological, has its specific properties. Most properties of matter depend on the structures, and many techniques have been developed over the centuries for structure analysis. The greatest of them all, structure analysis of single crystals by X-ray diffraction, X-ray crystallography, was founded in 1912 and is still today t...
متن کاملElectron crystallography of membrane proteins.
Electron crystallography studies the structure of two-dimensional crystals of membrane proteins or other crystalline arrays. This method has been used to determine the atomic structures of six membrane proteins and tubulin, as well as several other structures at a slightly lower resolution, where secondary structure motifs could be identified. To preserve the high-resolution structure of 2D cry...
متن کاملSurface crystallography via electron microscopy.
The study of atomic structure of surfaces is fundamental to the understanding of electronic, chemical and mechanical properties of surfaces and numerous techniques have been developed to this end. Transmission Electron Microscopy techniques, namely transmission electron imaging (TEM) and diffraction (TED), due to their ability to provide structural information at very high resolutions, have eme...
