For materials scientists, understanding the atomic structure of a material, revealing defects, or characterizing the chemical and physical processes that occur during the creation of material, are key ...

TEM works by accelerating electrons, typically with energies between 80 and 300 kV, and directing them through a specimen thin enough for electron transmission. Because of their very short wavelength ...

An example of a correlative study between XRM and FIB-SEM has been presented in an earlier study. 1 This article will expand the correlation one step beneath the length scale to link FIB-SEM and TEM, ...

Researchers from Nagoya University in Japan employed atomic-resolution secondary electron (SE) imaging to examine the atomic structure of the topmost layer of materials, uncovering differences from ...

Felipe Rivera, director of the microscopy facility at BYU, stands in front of one of the university’s new transmission electron microscopes, which will allow undergraduate students to capture 3D ...

TEM works by transmitting a beam of electrons through an ultra-thin specimen. As the electrons interact with the specimen, they are scattered or transmitted, producing an image that is magnified and ...

Electron microscopy has become a vital tool in structural biology, enabling researchers to visualize biological macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. Recent advances have transformed it from a low ...
