Chapter 2.4, Problem 1RIA
Summary Introduction
Transmission electron microscope (TEM) that are available today is complex, but its working mechanism or principle can be understood easily. This microscopy employs a beam of electrons that pass through the specimen to form an image. The sample should be an ultrathin section of 100 nm thick or it is a suspension on a grid.
