Calcium phosphate precipitation obtained from aqueous solutions at room and body temperatures and pH 5.5-7.5 were investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), transmission electron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM ...
The understanding of material self-assembling and self-organization mechanisms, at mesoscale, is crucial for nanotechnologies development. Such structures, hierarchically organized in superlattices or colloïdal crystals, are observed in inorganic or organo ...
Information for phase identification may be gathered in the electron transmission microscope with spatial resolution down to the nanometre scale. Energy dispersive X-ray and electron energy loss spectrometries are based on inelastic electron/sample interac ...
A method for preparing and observing clay platelets for size and shape analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was developed. Samples of the clay platelets were prepared by polyelectrolyte-assisted adsorption onto a pyrolytic graphite surface. Th ...

Zircaloy-4 has been oxidised in environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), at a temperature of 700 °C and the surface of the material has been observed during the oxidation, directly in the ESEM. The material has been subsequently analysed by atomi ...
The microstructural properties of Ag thick-film contacts on P diffused [100] Si wafers are investigated. By transmission electron microscopy, the contact interface is ound to be composed of mostly 100-500 nm sized Ag crystallites penetrating into the si on ...
We report an experimental and a theoretical study of the radial elasticity of multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a function of external radius. We use atomic force microscopy and apply small indentation amplitudes in order to stay in the linear elasticity reg ...
Collagen type I displays a typical banding periodicity of 67 nm when visualized by atomic force or transmission electron microscopy imaging. We have investigated collagen fibers extracted from rat tail tendons using atomic force microscopy, under different ...
We have measured the magnetization of a two-dimensional electron system that has been laterally patterned to an array of mesoscopic dots. In our experimental data we observe sawtooth-like de Haas–van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations of the equilibrium magnetizat ...
