With the demand for high-performnce materials increasing, it has become necessary to optimize their structural properties at the nanoscale, underscoring the importance of systematic and routine ...

Physicist Albert V. Crewe, inventor of the scanning transmission electron microscope and former director of Argonne National Laboratory, died Wednesday from complications of Parkinson’s disease. He ...

Using a STEM-in-SEM conversion holder, we can convert a scanning electron microscope into a scanning transmission microscope.

We can directly see the hidden world of atoms thanks to electron microscopes, first developed in the 1930s. Today, electron microscopes, which use beams of electrons to illuminate and magnify a sample ...

A comparison of experimental annular dark field (ADF)-scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron ptychography in uncorrected and aberration-corrected electron microscopes. In the ...

A cross-section of pine stem has several concentric rings with distinct borders between each ring. The center of the stem is called pith. The many holes allow water to be carried throughout the plant.
