The Electron and Scanning Probe Microscopy Unit provides solutions for imaging and analysis at the nanoscale. The unit houses two scanning electron microscopes, two scanning probe microscopes and ...
STEM operates by focusing a beam of electrons into a narrow probe that is scanned across a thin specimen. As the electrons interact with the sample, they are either scattered or transmitted. The ...
What is scanning tunneling microscopy? STM uses a nanoscale probe to measure the topography and local electronic properties of a sample by scanning the probe over a surface. As the tip is scanned over ...
In the world of nanotechnology, where structures are measured in billionths of a meter, precise imaging and measurement techniques are essential. Critical Dimension Scanning Electron Microscopy ...
(1632-1723) and Englishman Robert Hooke (1635-1703). Both played instrumental roles in the identification of microorganisms using glass lenses and essentially launched the fields of optical microscopy ...
A coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a maggot or the larva of a bluebottle fly (Protophormia sp.) with tiny teeth-like fangs extending from its mouth. The maggots of this fly ...
We can see objects as small as 0.1 millimeters, and that means we can just about see these lice eggs in our hair and tiny single-celled organisms like amoeba. But it's possible to see things much ...
This gallery features extreme close-ups of popular foods. Everyday items were examined with a scanning electron microscope, revealing surprising details. This broccoli floret, for instance, looks like ...
If you want to build semiconductors at home, it seems like the best place to start might be to find a used scanning electron microscope on eBay. At least that’s how [Peter Bosch] kicked off his ...
