This article has been updated in January 2024. High resolution images of microscopic samples can be obtained experimentally using Scanning Electron Transmission Microscopy (STEM). It is an effective ...

Since then, the versatile scanning electron microscope has become a vital research tool for numerous fields of science. More recently, it has become invaluable to nanoscience and nanotechnology, where ...

We’ve all likely seen the amazing images possible with a scanning electron microscope. An SEM can yield remarkably detailed 3D images of the tiniest structures, and they can be invaluable tools ...

The development of scanning probe microscopes started with the invention of the scanning tunneling microscope in 1981 by Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer at IBM Zurich Research Laboratories, winning ...

According to [Asianometry], no one believed in the scanning electron microscope. No one, that is, except [Charles Oatley].The video below tells the whole story. The Cambridge graduate built radios … ...

A scanning electron microscope, acquired in 2016 with a grant from the National Science Foundation, provides a powerful tool for students, faculty, and visiting researchers to study the structure and ...

With the help of 'charge compensation', it is possible to use the scanning electron microscope to examine sensitive samples without pre-treatment. Another important element of the facility is its ...
