In material analysis, seeing the surface of a sample is often only the first step. A tabletop SEM allows laboratories to observe morphology, topography, defects, particles, coatings, and microstructural features at high magnification. But to fully...

When Sample Preparation Becomes the Limitation

Many analytical techniques require dilution, mechanical stress, or extensive preparation before a sample can be measured. While these steps may simplify the analysis, they can also alter the sample itself and compromise the relevance of the...
