IBM, Nion Create Highest-Resolution Electron Microscope

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y., August 14 -- IBM and Nion Co. researchers have developed technology that extends the capabilities of the electron microscope to look at small, atomic-scale details in materials -- such as those used in manufacturing semiconductors -- at a resolution never As reported in the August 8 issue of Nature, for the past 50 years electron optics engineers have sought to improve the precision of electron microscopes by counteracting the image-blurring effects of lens imperfections, or "aberrations." The largest imperfection, "spherical aberration," cannot be fixed in a...Read full article
