Pretty much everywhere secondary electron has energy of 50 eV or less. I would like to know bit detail definition of secondary electron in the SEM. Why there is no SE with higher energy even beam energy is quite high like 10KeV and more. What is the difference between secondary electron and...
It seems the field φ(t, xi) could be integrated over all space to form a single temporal variable (which isn't a field anymore, but is just a function of time) as follows:
Φ(t) = ∫φ(t, xi)dxi
Suppose we then assume a Lagrangian from this temporal variable to be:
L1 = -1/2 Φ'(t)2 + 1/2 b2...
I am working (as an undergraduate) assisting in the repair of a JEOL Scanning Electron Microscope.
Without going into too much detail, some components of the SEM control system may be damaged and need complete replacement. I am working with an instrument engineer who has mentioned that he has...
2 SEM images of gemstones: emerald and ruby (Electron Miscroscope with Secondary Electron detector, (which "takes picture" of surface layer (~0.5 um) both the elemental composition and relief)).
Dendrites - it is clear (not me, but in general), what creates other patterns?
* trace elements? -...
I am an undergraduate researcher and my university had an SEM donated to us by DOW chemical. It since has been without power and we have to bake the column and the gun chamber. Contacting the company they estimate $17k to send someone out to do it for us. I'm having difficulty finding material...
I was wondering if someone could offer an explanation as to why TEMs and SEMs have practical resolutions several orders of magnitude less than what is predicted by the Rayleigh Criterion. This of course comes from my own calculations of the Rayleigh Criterion assuming an electron is accelerated...
In my research group, I'm tasked with determining the purity of a tungsten sample sent from a supplier. Using FIB, we cut a 20 by 20 by 20 micron well into the sample and tested a wall of the well about 10 microns down from the surface.
After taking a spectrogram, there seemed to be a large...
Hi, this isn't exactly a homework question, but this seemed like the most appropriate place to put it.
Homework Statement
I have an equation in the form:
log(a)=log(b)+c.
I also have standard errors (SEMs) for b and c. I want to find the standard error for log(a) (i.e. log(a) +/- E(log(a)))...
I'm a mechanical engineering student 1st yr . I need suggestions regarding books for basic mechanical engineering and engineering mechanics . A book with basics n proper language.
Looking at Ben Krasnow's youtube video on breaking down the parts and general cost for a scanning electron microscope, he lists a raster scan generator, is that able to produce the highest resolution images still? Or is there another more modern technology for this purpose? Otherwise, how has...
Greetings,
After getting some training I have access to my universities SEM facilities and I would like to image CDs and DVDs with it(, I know that these consist of many layer which may not be transparent to the e-beam so they might need some preparation. Does anyone have any idea? I am...
Good day,
anyone can point out to me how kikuchi bands are formed? And I mean bands, not lines. I finally managed to understand (I think) kikuchi lines: bragg diffraction is decreased in the incident direction (defecit=darker line) and enhanced in the "bragg" direction (excess=brighter line)...
Hey all,
As the title suggests, I've found some recurring structure on an SEM image and I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. I took the image this morning.
Here she is:

Hey Forum,
So I am in my final semester in my undergraduate program for Biology. I am going into bioimaging field of study, so I took on a research elective utilizing a scanning electron microscope.
I am also taking a one credit directed study in microbiology which is used to combine and...
So, I'm trying to understand how tension works between a cable.
No, not homework. A book example. I have the answers.
a = 0.679 m/s2
t = 12s
So, I've seen the free-body diagrams. There is tension, sure, but the tension is in perpendicular directions. The book gives examples of tension in a...
Hi,
Let T_{\alpha\beta} be the stress-energy momentum tensor. What does g_{\alpha\beta}T^{\alpha\beta} mean? I have always thought of the Ricci tensor and the SEM as the same thing essentially, but the Ricci scalar essentially assigns a number to the curvature of the manifold, what does T...

I have 25 hours or classes for my first term and 26 hours for my second term. HOWEVER the biggest problem with this is that I have 5 courses for my first term and 7 for my second. Do you think I can handle 7...
Okay, this is kind of a contest. Name the something nano-sized you would like to see a picture of. I will consider all the submitted ideas, and scan the object, that would make the coolest picture, for all to see.
Why am I doing this? Well, I want to have a cool SEM picture (that I...
