Granted, the idea of cutting metal inside the vacuum chamber of an SEM seems like quite an undertaking right up front. To accomplish this, [Zach] needed to build a custom tool to advance a cutting ...

Vacuum sealed chamber that contains the field emission gun ... Electrons emitted from the gun are accelerated from the high negative potential of the tip to the ground potential at the anode. In the ...

The SEM chamber's size also imposes limitations on the size of the samples that can be studied. Samples must not only fit within the chamber but also remain stable under vacuum conditions. Certain ...

SEM stands for scanning electron microscope ... The sputter coater uses an electric field and argon gas. The sample is placed in a small chamber that is at a vacuum. Argon gas and an electric field ...

The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a valuable tool for understanding what is happening to a material or biological ...
