We report nanomanipulation and nanoassembly of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) through nanorobotic manipulation inside electron microscopes. A hybrid nanorobotic manipulation system, which is integrated with a nanorobotic manipulator inside a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and nanorobotic manipulators inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM), is used. The elasticity of a multiwalled CNT (MWN...

An electron microprobe is an electron microscope designed for the non-destructive x-ray microanalysis and imaging of solid materials. It is essentially a hybrid instrument combining the capabilities of both the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an x-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), with the added features of fine-spot focusing (~ 1 micrometer), optical microscope imaging, and precision...

in this study, the effect of grain size on nitrogen diffusion into ck45 has been investigated. in order to obtain different grain sizes, samples were annealed and normalized at various temperatures and durations.the grain size was determined with clemex vision software. then, the specimens were exposed to dc plasma nitriding treatment and again analyzed by optical microscope ,scanning electron ...

a simple method has been employed to synthesize copper and copper oxide nanoparticles from copper (ii) succinate precursor by thermal decomposition method using oleylamine as a capping agent. the particles synthesized with oleylamine and triphenylphosphine were well dispersed nanoparticles obtained from x-ray diffraction (xrd). the synthesized copper nanoparticles were characterized by uv-visib...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to determine the effects of citrus aurantifolia (ca) extract on smear layer removal in different parts of root canals. materials and methods: thirty-nine single-rooted human teeth were randomly divided into three experimental ( n =12) and one control ( n =3) groups. teeth were instrumented using mtwo rotary instruments. root canals were irrigated with...
