It’s not your ordinary microscope. It fires electrons at a sample. Which creates a high-resolution image by scanning the surface topography. As well as data about the surface composition.

In electronics work, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) is the most common. You hit something with electrons and watch for secondary electron emissions. However, biologists more often use a ...

Much like the traditional scanning electron microscope (SEM), the field emission scanning electron microscope uses electrons to illuminate a sample, instead of visible light as is used in optical ...

SEM stands for scanning electron microscope. The SEM is a microscope that uses electrons instead of light to form an image. Since their development in the early 1950's, scanning electron microscopes ...

The transmission electron microscope (TEM) operates on the same basic principles as the light microscope but uses electrons instead of light. What you can see with a light microscope is limited by the ...

Zeiss Crossbeam 550 with GEMINI II electron optics is optimized for fast high-resolution low-kV imaging. The microscope is equipped with Gallium - Focused Ion Beam (FIB) for 3D EM imaging. It features ...

Behold, the world's fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it's the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. Developed by researchers at the ...

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 ...

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 ...
