Scanning Electron Microscopy
Secondary Electron Imaging
Houston Electron Microscopy is equiped with a Thermo Fisher (FEI) Prisma E model Scanning Electron Microscope Scanning Electron Microscope. With it, we are able to capture images in high or low vacuum mode. High vacuum imaging provides the highest resolution at 3.0 nm. For most aplications, observations are performed at magnifications in the range of 1000X to 10,000X. However, magnifications as high as 100,000X can be obtained using Secondary Electron imaging.
