Scanning ultrafast electron microscopy
Progress has been made in the development of four-dimensional ultrafast electron microscopy, which enables space-time imaging of structural dynamics in the condensed phase. In ultrafast electron microscopy, the electrons are accelerated, typically to 200 keV, and the microscope operates in the transmission mode. Here, we report the development of scanning ultrafast electron microscopy using a field-emission-source configuration. Scanning of pulses is made in the single-electron mode, for which the pulse contains at most one or a few electrons, thus achieving imaging without the space-charge effect between electrons, and still in ten(s) of seconds. For imaging, the secondary electrons from surface structures are detected, as demonstrated here for material surfaces and biological specimens. By recording backscattered electrons, diffraction patterns from single crystals were also obtained. Scanning pulsed-electron microscopy with the acquired spatiotemporal resolutions, and its efficient heat-dissipation feature, is now poised to provide in situ 4D imaging and with environmental capability
Silver stain for electron microscopy
Ammoniacal silver stain used for light microscopy was adapted advantageously for use with very thin biological sections required for electron microscopy. Silver stain can be performed in short time, has more contrast, and is especially useful for low power electron microscopy
Rene 41 heat treatment electron microscopy
Electron microscope helps prevent post-weld strain-age cracking of Rene 41 by identifying in advance microstructures that are detrimental to welding
Topological Homogeneity for Electron Microscopy Images
In this paper, the concept of homogeneity is defined, from a
topological perspective, in order to analyze how uniform is the material
composition in 2D electron microscopy images. Topological multiresolution
parameters are taken into account to obtain better results than
classical techniques.Ministerio de EconomÃa y Competitividad MTM2016-81030-PMinisterio de EconomÃa y Competitividad TEC2012-37868-C04-0
Soil microstructure and electron microscopy
As part of the process of comparing Martian soils with terrestial soils, high resolution electron microscopy and associated techniques should be used to examine the finer soil particles, and various techniques of electron and optical microscopy should be used to examine the undisturbed structure of Martian soils. To examine the structure of fine grained portions of the soil, transmission electron microscopy may be required. A striking feature of many Martian soils is their red color. Although the present-day Martian climate appears to be cold, this color is reminiscent of terrestial tropical red clays. Their chemical contents are broadly similar
