Abstract
An intelligent system and method for preparing cryo-electron microscopy samples is provided. The system includes a control center, an ultra-low temperature liquid tank, a sample holding mechanism configured to limit a position of a to-be-processed sample, a sample processing mechanism configured to cut or polish the sample, a position adjustment mechanism, and a sample transfer mechanism configured to transfer a processed sample. In a working process, the control center controls the ultra-low temperature liquid tank to provide a preset temperature environment based on a target sample type, activates the position adjustment mechanism based on position information of the sample holding mechanism in the first chamber to drive the sample processing mechanism to perform processing according to a preset processing route, and activates, based on information about the processed sample to be transferred into the second chamber, the sample transfer mechanism to transfer the processed sample in a preset environment.
