Determination of Experimental Parameters
Detector separated from Instrument: no automated read-out (yet)
• Detector distance (alias Camera length)• Rotation axis• Direct beam position• Oscillation width (Rotation per frame)
A3EDPI: values can be calibrated, e.g. once/day
Hybrid pixel detectors are radi-ation hard and require no beam-stop. This facilitates determinationof detector distance, rotation axis,direct beam position

High resolution data collection for MX-ED
• X-ray: Test crystals (Thaumatin, Lysozyme, . . . ) easily diffract to 1.2–1Å
• Electron: about 2x worse so far
• Idea (I. Schlichting, K. Diederichs, independently): Combine serial crystallography with rotation method
1. Rotate sample at high dose with short lifetime but maximum resolution, e.g. 5◦ per crystal
2. Combine data from many crystals for data completness
• Outcome determines whether 3D ED will be useful for Structural Biology

8 - Conclusions
“[. . . ] the present work opens the route to detailed structure analysis [. . . ]”
Palatinus et al., Science (2017)
“. . . the whole field of electron crystallography would benefit from a transmission electron microscopespecifically designed as an electron diffractometer.”
Gemmi et al., J. Appl. Crystallogr. (2015)
Similar statements are found across the decades (Voigt-Martin et al. (1997), Klechkovskaya & Imamov (2001),Dorset (2010), Zou & Hovmöller (2008))
A3EDPI took the final step and created an electron diffracto-
meter for chemical crystallography.
