When all you’ve got is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And when you’ve got a scanning electron microscope, everything must look like a sample that would be really, really interesting ...

When you’ve got a scanning electron microscope sitting around, you’re going to find ways to push the awesome envelope. [Ben Krasnow] is upping his SEM game with a new rig to improve image ...

and using STM to write with atoms is one of its more innovative applications. But scientists are using electron microscopy in other new ways, as well. These include constructing three- dimensional ...

Knowledge of the microscopic structure and composition of materials is essential for understanding their properties and designing functional devices. Microscopy techniques based on electrons and X ...

How electrons arrange and rearrange themselves inside atoms and molecules is ... a newer version of a transmission electron microscope, captures images of electrons in flight by hitting them ...

Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan used atomic-resolution secondary electron ... the journal Microscopy. Some materials exhibit "surface reconstruction," where the surface atoms are ...

The efforts of microscopists have given aberration-corrected transmission electron ... images of crystals, almost as though they had been taken with a very high-magnification light-optical microscope.

All of these advantages, as well as the actual strikingly clear images, make the scanning electron microscope one of the most useful ... an electron to be removed from the argon, making the atoms ...
