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 ...

Since the 1950s, scientists have worked around this problem by coating samples with a thin layer of gold before imaging. While this approach made electron microscopy possible for countless discoveries ...

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.

If this little face looks a little . . . well, deflated, that’s because it literally is. This is a scanning electron microscope image of a hollow polystyrene sphere. When Arkaprabha Giri, a postdoc in ...

Researchers developed tapered polymer optical fibers that are optimized for delivering light to the brain. A scanning electron microscopy image of one of the tapers is shown. Disclaimer: AAAS and ...

According to [Asianometry], no one believed in the scanning electron microscope. No one, that is, except [Charles Oatley].The video below tells the whole story. The Cambridge graduate built radios ...

Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...
