A Practical Guide to Transmission Electron Microscopy: Fundamentals

Synopsis

Transmission Electron Microscope (tem) Is A Very Powerful Tool Used To Study Sample Structures With High Resolutions. Tem Allows Energized Electrons To Penetrate A Thin Specimen So That Information About Imaging, Diffraction, And Chemical Compositions From The Specimen Can Be Obtained. Due To The Short Wavelength Of The High-energy Electrons, Its Resolution Typically Reaches Several Angstroms For A Conventional Tem. Because Of This High Resolution, Tem Has Been Widely Applied In Diverse Areas In The Materials And Biological Sciences, Playing A Key Role In Research Or Development In Relation To The Sample Design, Synthesis, Processing Or Performance. This Book Provides A Concise Practical Guide To Beginners, Including Upper-division Undergraduates, Graduates, Researchers And Engineers. It Is Written Primarily For Materials Science And Engineering Or Related Disciplines, While Applications In Biological Sciences Are Also Included. It Concisely Covers Nearly The Entire Area Of Tem, Including The Instrumentation, Sample Preparation, Diffraction, Imaging, Chemical Analysis, And Some Newly Developed Techniques.
