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 ...

In transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where the electron beam passes through the sample to be directly imaged on the detector below, it is often necessary to support the thin samples on a grid.

What is High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM)? High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) is an advanced imaging technique that enables the direct visualization of ...

Observations at the nanoscale can provide profound insights into materials science. Yet, the characterization of beam-sensitive and reactive materials has proven challenging. In order to address this ...

Scanning transmission electron microscopy, or STEM, is a powerful imaging technique that enables researchers to study a material’s morphology, composition, and bonding behavior at the angstrom scale.

A team of researchers has developed the first transmission electron microscope which operates at the temporal resolution of a single attosecond, allowing for the first still-image of an electron in ...

But the fastest “cameras” in the world – transmission electron microscopes – can capture events on the scale of attoseconds, like photos of electrons running. An attosecond is one quintillionth of a ...

A unique laboratory at Michigan Tech captured microscopic photography of snowflakes in a demonstration of the lab's high-powered scanning electron microscope. The Applied Chemical and Morphological ...
