This book was developed with the goal of providing an easily understood text for those users of the scanning electron microscope (SEM) who have little or no background in the area. The SEM is routinely used to study the surface structure and chemistry of a wide range of biological and synthetic materials at the micrometer to nanometer scale. Easeofuse, typically facile sample preparation, and straightforward image interpretation, combined with high resolution, high depth of field, and the ability to undertake microchemical and crystallographic analysis, has made scanning electron microscopy one of the most powerful and versatile techniques for characterization today. Indeed, the SEM is a vital tool for the characterization of nanostructured materials and the development of nanotechnology. However, its wide use by professionals with diverse technical backgroundsincluding life science, materials science, engineering, forensics, mineralogy, etc., and in various sectors of government, industry, and academiaemphasizes the need for an introductory text providing the basics of effective SEM imaging.A Beginners Guide to Scanning Electron Microscopy explains instrumentation, operation, image interpretation and sample preparation in a wide ranging yet succinct and practical text, treating the essential theory of specimenbeam interaction and image formation in a manner that can be effortlessly comprehended by the novice SEM user. This book provides a concise and accessible introduction to the essentials of SEMincludes a large number of illustrations specifically chosen to aid readers' understanding of key conceptshighlights recent advances in instrumentation, imaging and sample preparation techniquesoffers examples drawn from a variety of applications that appeal to professionals from diverse backgrounds.
