    摘要: In a device (1) for rapid pressure-freezing an aqueous sample (3), such as a biological specimen, a pressurized cooling medium can be fed into a high-pressure chamber (11) into which a sample holder (30) containing a sample (3) is inserted and which is sealed with a pressure-tight seal, to the location of the sample holder (30) held therein. The high-pressure chamber (11) comprises a viewing window structure (2) with a pressure-tight window (20), through which light can be directed from the outside onto the sample (3) located in the sample holder (30). The window (20) can comprise a transparent window element made of a high-pressure-resistant material, wherein the window element (20) is held by a pressure- and temperature-resistant window bearing provided in the high-pressure chamber.

    摘要: In a light microscope (1) for cryomicroscopy, encompassing at least an objective (2) and a sample stage (3) having a cutout (7) for a coolable holder (8) for a sample carrier mount, the cutout (7) being covered by a cover (6), the sample stage (3) is displaceable in two horizontal directions (4). The cover (6) rests floatingly on the sample stage (3), and the objective (2) passes through a cutout (12), corresponding to the objective (2), in the cover (6). The method for cooling a holder (8) for a sample carrier mount in a light microscope (1) for cryomicroscopes, by means of a flow of liquid nitrogen through a cooling conduit (15), open at at least one end, in the holder (8), is notable for the fact that the quantity of liquid nitrogen is dimensioned so that all of the nitrogen is present in gaseous form at at least one open end (16) of the cooling conduit (15).

    摘要: For cooled processing of a sample, a system for cooling the sample includes a holding device (22) for receiving the sample in a sample holder (20), as well as a cooling chamber (12) that surrounds the position (P) of the sample mounted on the holding device. Provided in the cooling chamber (12) is a window through which a tool receptacle (16) for receiving a tool (W) for processing the sample projects into the cooling chamber (12). The holding device (22) is coolable to a settable temperature by means of a fluid coolant, and ensures cooling of the sample. For this, a coolant, e.g. liquid nitrogen, flows through a coolant conduit of the holding device (22), which conduit is furnished with the coolant at the input end (31) and opens at the output end (41) into the cooling chamber (12), which in this fashion is filled with coolant gas.
