While the original electron microscope arrived in the early 1930’s (there’s still a controversy to this day over who invented the very first one), scientists have relied on what are known as ...

As the beam passes through or bounces off the sample, the microscope detects the interaction between the electrons and the atoms of the material. There are two main types of electron microscopes ...

An electron microscope consists of an electron gun, various lenses and optics, a sample holder and detectors oriented either in a transmission or scattering geometry. Due to the high voltages often ...

When all you’ve got is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And when you’ve got a scanning electron microscope, everything must look like a sample that would be really, really interesting ...

The electron beam follows a vertical path through the microscope, which is held within a vacuum. The beam travels through electromagnetic fields and lenses, which focus the beam down toward the sample ...

A new scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) technique that modulates the electron beam in response to the scattering rate allows images to be formed with the fewest electrons possible. The ...

Now physicists at the University of Arizona have developed the world’s fastest electron microscope to capture events lasting ... triggering a one-attosecond electron pulse that can image a sample .

It is a shared facility for microanalysis in materials research, and home to the University’s JEOL JEM 2010 High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope. The facility provides microanalysis ...

A research team from City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) is working on a new quantum electron microscope (QEM) to eliminate interaction between the electron beam and sample. At this stage, the team ...

Electron microscopes have long been indispensable tools in scientific research, offering unparalleled resolution and magnification capabilities. However, current electron microscopy technologies ...
