Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) remains an indispensable tool for visualising material surfaces at the nanometre scale. The technique relies on a focused electron beam to generate high-resolution ...

Conventional microscopy cannot resolve some cellular structures, and does not capture three-dimensional features of the sample. The connectivity of local networks of neurons is an example of ...

Microscopes are of three basic types: optical, electron (or ion), and scanning probe. The modern optical or light microscope was developed in the mid-19th century. Optical microscopes use transparent ...

Have you ever wondered what makes shark skin so tough and sleek? It's dermal denticles—tiny, tooth-like structures that cover a shark's skin. Made of the same material as teeth and shaped like small ...

Over the last 20 years, the proliferation of research utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has driven the performance of systems towards higher resolution at lower voltages. This enthusiasm is ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 71, No. 1 (Jan., 1974), pp. 1-5 (5 pages) We have shown that a scanning transmission electron microscope with a ...

With low particulate loading common in stack emissions these days, particulate matter measurement can be difficult using traditional techniques. Microscopical measurement of particle-size ...

Among all the instruments in its class, the Thermo Scientific Prisma E Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) offers the most comprehensive solution, thanks to its sophisticated automation and extensive ...
