the scanning electron microscope
it is only thirteen years since the scanning electron microscope has been available commercially. yet, even in this short period of time, this instrument has been a powerful tool in the investigation of topography, electrical and magnetic properties, crystal structure, cathodoluminescent characteristics etc. of solid specimens. today, this type of microscope has opened its place alongside the c...
متن کاملChemical mapping and quantification at the atomic scale by scanning transmission electron microscopy.
With innovative modern material-growth methods, a broad spectrum of fascinating materials with reduced dimensions-ranging from single-atom catalysts, nanoplasmonic and nanophotonic materials to two-dimensional heterostructural interfaces-is continually emerging and extending the new frontiers of materials research. A persistent central challenge in this grand scientific context has been the det...
متن کاملAtomic and molecular manipulation with the scanning tunneling microscope.
The prospect of manipulating matter on the atomic scale has fascinated scientists for decades. This fascination may be motivated by scientific and technological opportunities, or from a curiosity about the consequences of being able to place atoms in a particular location. Advances in scanning tunneling microscopy have made this prospect a reality; single atoms can be placed at selected positio...
متن کاملElectron microscopy’s multi-tool: the Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope
A dedicated Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope is ideally coupled with the energy dispersive x-ray and electron energy loss spectroscopies to obtain information about the chemical composition, morphology and electronic structure on the nanoscale. With several signals being available simultaneously with the pass of a subnanometre-sized beam, this instrument can answer questions from a bro...
متن کاملX-ray Microanalysis of Cultured Cells in the Scanning Electron Microscope and in the Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope: a Comparison
X-ray microanalysis of cultured cells as “whole mounts” (i.e., not sectioned) is used frequently e.g., to study mechanisms of ion transport. Cells can be cultured either on solid substrates or on thin plastic films on grids. Cells cultured on solid substrates are analyzed in the scanning electron microscope at relatively low accelerating voltage, cells cultured on thin films can be analyzed in ...
