What are the Challenges in High Resolution Imaging?
Despite its importance, high resolution imaging in nanotechnology faces several challenges:
Sample Preparation: Preparing nanoscale samples without altering their properties can be challenging and requires precise techniques. Instrumentation Costs: High resolution imaging instruments such as TEM and SEM are expensive and require regular maintenance. Image Interpretation: Interpreting images at the nanoscale requires expertise and can be complex due to the presence of artifacts and noise. Resolution Limits: The resolution of these techniques is often limited by factors such as electron beam diffraction and tip sharpness.
