This picture is composed of 4,225 scanning electron microscope images. It shows a microchip based on 65-nanometre technology. This means that the smallest structure on the chip that can be reliably ...

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 ...

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 to see ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are 1D tube-like structures with nanometric diameters and micrometric length. A carbon nanotube is made by the concentric rolling up of one or more graphene layers. These ...

With the inventions of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in 1931 and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shortly after in 1937, scientists gained an unprecedented ultrastructural view of the ...
