We are excited to share our new company video! Check it out to learn more about how we are working to advance scientific research with our TEM sample holders. Thank you so much for your support thus far! Interested to learn more? We look forward to hearing from you! #science #research #microscopy #cryoEM #TEM #Microanalysis #electronmicroscopy

Last Friday, we had the great opportunity to celebrate condenZero’s fifth anniversary at our office site, surrounded by friends, family, supporters, partners, and customers. The journey so far has been amazing, and it’s all thanks to our community's strong support and trust. Thank you for being part of our journey! #Anniversary #Milestone #ThankYou #Celebration #condenZero #cryoTEM #SwissStartups #Community

🎉 🎉 🎉 This week marks a significant milestone for condenZero as we celebrate our fifth anniversary! Originating from the University of Zurich's Physics department UZH, our journey began with the mission to innovate the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) sector through our advanced cryogenics technology. Early concepts have been already developed in 2017 and slowly took shape after countless design iterations, with the support of the Laboratory for Quantum Matter Research, and the invaluable contributions of our physics mechanical workshop. A special shoutout to our early adopters at the Ernst Ruska-Centre (ER-C) of the Forschungszentrum Jülich. Collaborations with Penghan Lu, András Kovács, Thibaud Denneulin, Yan Lu, Michael Faley, Michael Schaaf, and Rafal Dunin-Borkowski have been instrumental in refining our TEM cryostats. We are immensely grateful for your insights and dedication. Looking ahead, we are excited to be deploying our systems across Europe, facilitating cutting-edge scientific discoveries in cryo-TEM. Our journey has been supported by an array of distinguished institutions for which we are profoundly thankful: Werner Siemens Stiftung, SNF BRIDGE Programme, ESA BIC Switzerland, Venture Kick, CERN BIC & Switzerland Innovation Park Innovaare, IBAM, Gebert Rüf Stiftung, and Innosuisse SIP. Your belief in our vision has been pivotal. Reach out and connect with our team! Dominik Biscette (Rechsteiner), Damian Bucher, Amelia Estry, Andri Wasescha, Robin Weber, Celine Michelle, Johan Chang. Onward to the next five years and beyond! 🚀 #condenZero #ScienceAndInnovation #Cryogenics #Anniversary #Gratitude #ScientificResearch

🌟 Welcoming Celine Michelle to condenZero 🌟 We're excited to announce that Celine is joining condenZero as part of our administrative team. Her role in supporting our operations is vital as we continue to innovate in the field of cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) sample holders. Her support is key to our daily operations and overall success. Please join us in warmly welcoming Celine Michelle to condenZero! #condenZero #welcome #TeamGrowth #InnovationInScience #cryogenics #SwissStartups

🎉 Exciting News! 🎉 Thrilled to welcome Amelia Estry to condenZero! 🚀 Joining us as a physicist and research engineer (physics PhD from EPFL), she brings a wealth of experience in applied physics and enthusiasm to the team. With a proven track record in Quantum Matter research and Focused-Ion-Beam methodology, Amelia is poised to contribute significantly to our ongoing success. Here's to new beginnings, collaborative endeavours, and achieving the next milestones together! 🌟 #NewBeginnings #TeamExpansion #WelcomeAboard #condenZero #SwissStartups #QuantumMatter 🤝 Connect with Amelia Estry

Cryogenic Breakthrough. Five years ago we started conceptualising a new cryogenic design for TEM. In April 2020 we cooled down for the first time with liquid helium. The results did not seem promising initially, reaching only about 50 K. Almost a year later, in February 2021, we could (somewhat) stabilise low temperatures for the first time. ❄ Last week, with the newest cryogenic advancements, a breakthrough cool-down was achieved within 1 minute with stability of +/-2.4 mK (within 30-minute intervals). Thanks to our team and collaborators!
