An Evaluation of Image Quality Metrics for Scanning Electron Microscopy

Fat uptake evaluation in fried fish fillet by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of breading materials and two different frying oils on the fat up-take in the fish fillets during frying process. Breaded and non-breaded black pomfret (Parastromateus niger) fillets were fried in sunflower oil and palm olein. Fat content by Soxhelet method and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was studied. Results from Soxhelet method showe...

A fast image simulation algorithm for scanning transmission electron microscopy

Image simulation for scanning transmission electron microscopy at atomic resolution for samples with realistic dimensions can require very large computation times using existing simulation algorithms. We present a new algorithm named PRISM that combines features of the two most commonly used algorithms, namely the Bloch wave and multislice methods. PRISM uses a Fourier interpolation factor f th...

Contrast-to-gradient method for the evaluation of image resolution in scanning electron microscopy.

In a previous study, we proposed the contrast-to-gradient (CG) method for evaluating image resolution. Here, the CG resolution is defined as a weighted harmonic mean of the local resolution, which is proportional to the quotient of the threshold contrast divided by the local gradient. The local gradient is calculated from the quadratic function that best fits the local pixel intensities over th...
