Abstract

The invention discloses a manual ultralow-temperature sample stage for an iPALM (interferometric photoactivated localization microscopy) microscope, relates to a device which is used for applying a low-temperature transmission electron microscope biological sample to temperature preserving and position regulating of the sample of an interference type photo-activation dye positioning microscope iPALM, and aims to solve the problems of mounting an electron microscope copper net loaded with the biological sample in a narrow space, keeping the ultralow temperature of the biological sample and finely regulating the relative positions of the sample and a microscope objective. Liquid nitrogen is adopted for cooling a copper cooling core and further conducting and cooling a sample rod and the biological sample on the copper cooling core; low temperature control is performed by adopting multiple technologies of adopting a vacuum environment, a small contact surface and a heat insulating material for blocking external heat from passing through the microscope objective and a gas gap as well as passing through a vacuum cavity and an inner supporting part to conduct to the biological sample; a magnetic fluid seal technology is adopted for allowing the axial movement and the rotation of the objective and regulating an inner micro displacement table from the outer part through a differential head; a flat plate with a crossed V-shaped slot and a rolling ball are combined to form an XY displacement table to regulate XY positions of the sample.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a low-temperature biological sample positioning device for an interferometric fluorescent dye photoactivated localization (iPALM) microscope. Background technique: [0002] Life science is one of the most important hot research fields at present. An important manifestation of the mystery of life is the complex structure of nanoscale biomolecular machines and their miraculous and efficient biological functions. The study of the fine structure of matter is inseparable from the microscope, but the traditional optical imaging microscope is limited by the wavelength of visible light, with a resolution of only about 200 nanometers, and can only observe the micron and submicron scale structures of matter. The electron microscope has a high magnification due to the short and variable wavelength of the electron flow. Ideally, the arrangement and combination of atoms can be observed, or the resolution can reach the sub-nanometer level....
