  1. Psalm 119:99,100 99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

  2. Electron Microscopy Timothy G. Standish, Ph. D.

  3. History and Applications • Electron microscopes were developed around the same time as the development of television sets and utilize much of the same technology • They take advantage of the short wavelength of electrons. As the wavelength is shorter, higher resolution is possible than with regular light microscopes • Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM) are analogous to dissecting microscopes • Transmission Electron Microscopes (TEM) are similar in principle to compound microscopes

  5. Scanning Electron Microscopy • SEM is very good for looking at surfaces • SEM gives almost infinite depth of field • SEM cannot show color • With the right detectors SEM can be used to determine the elements in a sample • SEM can go to high magnifications, but cannot achieve magnifications as high as those achieved with Transmission Electron Microscopy

  11. Transmission Electron Microscopy • TEM allows for very high magnification due to the short wavelength of electrons • TEM is very good for looking inside cells, but is not very good for studying surfaces • Preparation of samples for TEM is time consuming and difficult • No natural color is possible with transmission electron micrographs
