Abstract: Electron microscopes (EM’s), are workhorse tools serving diverse fields such as materials science, biological science, and engineering. Scanning EM’s (SEM’s) in particular enable high magnification study and pinpoint chemical analyses of structures down to the nanoscale by providing a powerful blend of strong optical scattering, high native resolution, large depth of focus, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Mochii is the world’s smallest production electron microscope, scheduled...
