What are the Challenges in Non-Destructive Imaging at the Nanoscale?
Despite the advantages, non-destructive imaging at the nanoscale presents several challenges:
Resolution: Achieving high resolution is critical but challenging, particularly for imaging at the atomic scale. Sample Preparation: Preparing samples without altering their native state can be difficult. Environmental Control: Some techniques require precise environmental control, such as vacuum conditions or temperature stability. Data Interpretation: Interpreting the vast amount of data generated by these techniques requires sophisticated algorithms and expertise.
