Description : Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a versatile tool for high resolution surface imaging. The SEM uses low energy secondary electrons (SEI) or high energy back scattered electrons (BEI) from the specimen surface for image formation. While SEI image provides information on 50 to 150 3Å thicknesses of the sample, BEI image reveals surface features from larger depth. The advantages of SEM over light microscopy are greater magnification, resolution and much larger depth of field.
