Progress has been made in the development of four-dimensional ultrafast electron microscopy, which enables space-time imaging of structural dynamics in the condensed phase. In ultrafast electron microscopy, the electrons are accelerated, typically to 200 keV, and the microscope operates in the transmission mode. Here, we report the development of scanning ultrafast electron microscopy using a f...

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) is an invaluable tool for biologists and neuroscientists to study brain structure at the intracellular level. While able to image tissue samples with up to 5 nm isotropic resolution, image acquisition is prohibitively slow and limits the size of processed samples. In this work, we propose a novel approach to speeding up imaging when looking for specific struct...

cell-based biosensors have become a research hotspot in biosensors and bioelectronics fields. the main feature of cell-based biosensors is the immobilization of living cell on the surface of transducers. different types of polymers which are used as scaffolds for cell growth should be biocompatible and have reactive functional groups for further attachment of biomolecules. in this work, the cel...

pollen grains of five olive cultivars (olea europaea l .) were examined, using scanning electron microscopy (sem) for identification purposes. four measurments, polar axis (p), equatorial diameter (e), p/e ratio and exine patterns were made. forty pollen grains of each cultivar were viewed before finally selecting a representative pollen grain. polar diameter ranged between 22.76 μm for the...

polyvinyl ester green composites were synthesized with walnut shell powder (wsp) by in-situ polymerization technique. the green composites have been evaluated for mechanical properties such as tensile strength, tensile modulus and hardness. sliding wear loss, specific wear rate and coefficient of friction were investigated by using computerized pin-on–disc machine at normal applied loads of 20,...

introduction: the efficacy of erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser for root debridement in comparison with curettes has been the subject of many recent investigations. considering the possibility of chemical and ultra-structural changes in root surfaces following laser irradiation, this study sought to assess the effects of scaling and root planing (srp) with curettes and er:yag ...
