Shaped Laser Pulses for Microsecond Time-Resolved Cryo-EM: Outrunning Crystallization During Flash Melting

Constantin R. Krüger, Nathan J. Mowry, Marcel Drabbels +1

Water vitrifies if cooled at rates above K/s. Surprisingly, this process cannot simply be reversed by heating the resulting amorphous ice at a similar rate. Instead,…

Flash Melting Amorphous Ice

Nathan J. Mowry, Constantin R. Krüger, Gabriele Bongiovanni +2

Water can be vitrified if it is cooled at rates exceeding K/s. This makes it possible to outrun crystallization in so-called no man's land, a range of deeply supercooled t…
