  2. Traveling microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_microscope

    The precision is such that better-quality instruments have measuring scales made from Invar to avoid misreadings due to thermal effects. The instrument comprises a microscope mounted on two rails fixed to, or part of a very rigid bed. The position of the microscope can be varied coarsely by sliding along the rails, or finely by turning a screw.

  3. Microscopic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopic_scale

    The shape and texture in each individual grain is made visible through the microscope. [7] As the microscopic scale covers any object that cannot be seen by the naked eye, yet is visible under a microscope, the range of objects that fall under this scale can be as small as an atom, visible underneath a transmission electron microscope. [8]

  4. Scanning tunneling microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_tunneling_microscope

    Image of reconstruction on a clean surface of gold. A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is a type of scanning probe microscope used for imaging surfaces at the atomic level. . Its development in 1981 earned its inventors, Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer, then at IBM Zürich, the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1

  5. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_tunneling...

    Mechanism of how density of states influence V-A spectra of tunnel junction. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy is an experimental technique which uses a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) to probe the local density of electronic states (LDOS) and the band gap of surfaces and materials on surfaces at the atomic scale. [1]

  6. Scanning transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_transmission...

    A scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) is a type of transmission electron microscope (TEM). Pronunciation is [stɛm] or [ɛsti:i:ɛm]. As with a conventional transmission electron microscope (CTEM), images are formed by electrons passing through a sufficiently thin specimen. However, unlike CTEM, in STEM the electron beam is focused ...

  7. Scanning capacitance microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_capacitance...

    The high sensitivity of dynamical scanning capacitance microscopy, [8] in which the capacitance signal is modulated periodically by the tip motion of the atomic force microscope (AFM), was used to image compressible and incompressible strips in a two-dimensional electron gas buried 50 nm below an insulating layer in a large magnetic field and ...

  8. Scanning probe microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_probe_microscopy

    Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is a branch of microscopy that forms images of surfaces using a physical probe that scans the specimen. SPM was founded in 1981, with the invention of the scanning tunneling microscope, an instrument for imaging surfaces at the atomic level.

  9. Fluorescence microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_microscope

    [1] [2] A fluorescence microscope is any microscope that uses fluorescence to generate an image, whether it is a simple set up like an epifluorescence microscope or a more complicated design such as a confocal microscope, which uses optical sectioning to get better resolution of the fluorescence image.
