SEM vs. TEM: Understanding the Key Differences and Applications
Electron microscopy has revolutionized our ability to see the world at the nano and cellular levels. Two primary techniques, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), offer powerful ways to explore materials, biological specimens, and more. In this blog, we’ll look into the key differences and applications of SEM vs. TEM, guiding you…
Read MoreRaman Spectroscopy FAQ
A Look At Raman Spectroscopy What is Raman spectroscopy? Raman spectroscopy is a technique that analyzes the vibrational modes of molecules using light. When a laser beam interacts with a sample, most of the light scatters elastically (Rayleigh scattering). However, a small portion of the scattered light changes energy (inelastically scatters) due to interactions with…

Read MoreMAGNIFICATION OR RESOLUTION: WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT?
Magnification versus Resolution – which is more important? We often get asked about magnification in Tabletop SEM. Magnification is a relative term since the actual magnified size of an image depends on how it is displayed. This is why the micrographs captured by Scanning Electron Microscopes almost always contain a “scale bar” so that no…
