SEM comprises a set of techniques related to the interaction of an electron beam that raster the surface of the sample with it. Secondary electron, backscattered electrons, X rays, Auger electrons among others are generated and provides information about surface topopgraphy, composition and other properties of the sample characterized. A Field Emission Gun (FEG) source will allow resolutions below 2 nm.
Applications:
>> Cellular characterization
>> Tissues characterization
>> Biomaterials characterization
>> Macromolecular complexes characterization
