Wes Wigglesworth discusses Cryo EM trends and the critical role of vibration isolation in enhancing electron microscopy precision.
Optical microscopy can be used to track the photoinduced behavior in the nanotubes and understand how the energy following light absorption propagates and quenches in the nanoscale structure. By combining such experiments with theoretical modeling, the structure-activity relationships that govern all of the nanotube properties can be investigated and we can start to understand some of the fundamental physics that make these systems so special.

The diffraction patterns originate from very close to the sample surface, meaning that in order to obtain good TKD and EBSD results, specimen preparation is critical; a surface free from preparation-induced dislocations and contamination is necessary.
With the increasing need for extended operation in scanning electron microscopes, the necessity to maintain clean conditions in the vacuum chamber also increases.
