Tensile testing helps to predict when a material will break, but does not provide information on why or how this happens.

Unless the test is performed in/under a microscope.

Learn which microscope is most suitable for tensile testing and will help you to improve the performance of your materials:

Tensile testing is a commonly-used analysis that provides information on the resilience of an object. This allows researchers to create models and design better materials. But how can you see what is happening? A scanning electron microscope (SEM) can help you solve this problem:

Outsourcing scanning electron microscopy jobs is ideal if you have samples evaluated a couple of times a year.

However, if the number of samples or evaluation periods increases, a few practical issues typically arise:

Do you want to stop outsourcing scanning electron microscopy jobs and buy your personal SEM? Learn what costs to take into account and how to choose the SEM that best suits your research process:

When outsourcing your SEM jobs, there are a few challenges you face.

Sending out your samples is a time-consuming task and there’s a big chance you don’t get the right results, since you’re not present during the analysis to make the final check.

It’s time you get a personal SEM. Here’s how to choose the most suitable SEM for your research:

Backscattered electrons (BSEs) carry information on the material of the sample.

Obtaining high-quality images with a backscattered electron detector depends on many factors, such as the conductivity of the sample, its morphology and composition, the type of BSE detector and the electronics.

Given a fixed system with the same detector and electronics — a SEM — and the same sample, we analyzed the factors that play a role in the quality of a image.

And we outline how to improve that end quality. Read on for an in-depth read:

Obtaining high-quality images with a backscattered electron detector depends on many factors. Understanding these factors enables you to improve the quality of your images drastically. Acquire the knowledge to do so by reading this extensive yet comprehensible piece.

Considering a desktop scanning electron microscope (SEM)? If so, then it is important to determine what type of electron source fits your needs, since it has a direct effect on the quality of your output. In this blog, we'll therefore describe compare a Tungsten electron source with a CeB6 electron source. Read on to learn to discover which electron source is most suitable for a desktop SEM.

An electron source is one of the most important modules in a desktop SEM. Picking the one that fits your needs (Tungsten or CeB6, for instance) will save you time and improve lab productivity.

In some cases, using sputter coating for SEM imaging is recommended, or even necessary, to get good SEM images.

In this blog, we’ll explain how the sputter coating process works, and to which types of samples it should be applied.

Certain types of samples require an extra step in sample preparation. Learn how sputter coating for SEM works and to which type of samples it should be applied.
