Scanning Electron Microscope A To Z by JEOL Created 2026-10-20 Updated 2026-11-05
Printed p.7 explains magnification as display width divided by probe scan width. The raster-display geometry is useful in scanned transmitted-electron imaging too; the SEM detector mechanisms are not silently substituted for STEM detectors.
Selected-area diffraction by JEOL Created 2026-10-20 Updated 2026-11-05
Official glossary entry and imaging-lens-system diagram: area selection in the objective image plane and imaging of the diffraction plane.
Official manufacturer definition: an ultramicrotome inside the SEM chamber removes material, the exposed block face is imaged, and repeated acquisitions are stacked. Used for the physical acquisition sequence only, not manufacturer performance claims or biological use cases.
Official glossary: definition; Figure1 section preparation, registration and segmentation; Figure2 reconstruction and acquisition metadata.
Ultramicrotomy by JEOL 2026-11-05
Official manufacturer glossary. Instrument/feed/cutting definition, diamond knife, thin polymer-material sections, and dependence of actual thickness on material and temperature. Only physical apparatus and materials aspects used; no biological preparation protocol.
