    Microcrystal electron diffraction, commonly referred to as MicroED, has become a powerful tool for high-resolution structure determination. The method makes use of cryogenic transmission electron microscopes to collect electron diffraction data from crystals that are several orders of magnitude smaller than those used by other conventional diffraction techniques. MicroED has been used on a variety of samples including soluble proteins, membrane proteins, small organic molecules, and materials. Here we will review the MicroED method and highlight recent advancements to the methodology, as well as describe applications of MicroED within the fields of structural biology and chemical crystallography.

    We report new advancements in the determination and high-resolution structural analysis of beam-sensitive metal organic frameworks (MOFs) using microcrystal electron diffraction (MicroED) coupled with focused ion beam milling at cryogenic temperatures (cryo-FIB). A microcrystal of the beam-sensitive MOF, ZIF-8, was ion-beam milled in a thin lamella approximately 150 nm thick. MicroED data were collected from this thin lamella using an energy filter and a direct electron detector operating in counting mode. Using this approach, we achieved a greatly improved resolution of 0.59 Å with a minimal total exposure of only 0.64 e−/A2. These innovations not only improve model statistics but also further demonstrate that ion-beam milling is compatible with beam-sensitive materials, augmenting the capabilities of electron diffraction in MOF research.
