The resolving power of a microscope is one of the most important parameters especially when talking about modern high resolution instruments like TEM or STEM. In contrary, the attainable resolution depends on the resolving power of the microscope and the object and it can only be measured when imaging a certain object detail. Therefore, resolving power in this context means the object independe...

Pure and doped magnesium oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized employing a sol-gel process. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by thermal differential analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the crysta...

Li rechargeable cells made with structural arrangement Li/membrane/LixV2O5 were examined under different charge states using ac impedance, environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and the high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). These states include charged, discharged, and over cycled. The lowest internal resistance was obtained from th...

In the present study, application of porous acidic catalyst functionalized with an imidazoleionic liquid ([SBA-Im]HSO4) as a phase transfer catalyst for the facile preparation of benzylthiocyanates and azides in water has been described. The catalyst has been characterized byFourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmissionelectron microscopy (TEM...

In this work, a reaction coupling self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (RC-SHS) method was developed for the in situ controlled synthesis of novel, high activity TiB2/(TiB2-TiN) hierarchical/heterostructured nanocomposites using TiO2, Mg, B2O3, KBH4 and NH4NO3 as raw materials. The as-synthesized samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM)...

The production of zinc sulfate is important both medically and agriculturally. If zinc sulfate is produced without agglomeration at the nanoscale, its absorption in the body is more and faster. In this research, the induction time parameter is assessed for nucleation of zinc sulfate nanoparticles at room temperature and various supersaturations using acetone (as anti-solve...

OVERVIEW: Volume production of 90-nm node semiconductor products began in 2003, and research has been already well advanced on products for the next-generation 65-nm technology node. As feature sizes descend further into the deep submicrometer range, it becomes increasingly important for maintaining quality and streamlined production to exploit a range of analytical tools that are tightly integ...

Li rechargeable cells made with structural the arrangement Li/membrane/LixV2O5 were examined under different charge states using AC impedance, environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). These states include charged, discharged, and over-cycled. The lowest internal resistance was obtained from the cell in the charged state; the resistance increa...

Canine mammary gland tumors represent the second most frequent type of neoplasm in dogs, being an important problem within veterinary medical field. Canine mixed mammary tumors are the most common; the use of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) can contribute as a tool in its diagnosis by determining the characteristics of cellular components from numerous neoplasms. The aim of this study ...

Singularities in wave fields, such as phase vortices, are of substantial interest for light optics, matter waves and x-ray optics. New theoretical insights [1] and cutting edge nanofabrication techniques have recently created a wide variety of electron vortex beams [2, 3] for the transmission electron microscope (TEM), which can provide spectroscopic information pertaining to the magnetic prope...
