Summary on Grant Application Form |
Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy is a comparatively new technique which is still being developed to exploit its full potential for wet and uncoated insulating samples. This project has two aims: 1. To develop and build a gas mixing device which should both permit optimisation of contrast mechanisms, as understood by our Monte Carlo simulations, and also provide novel sample environments, 2. To explore how to optimise EDX measurements, based on improved understanding of electron-gas interactions.
