What are the Limitations of High Resolution Microscopy Techniques?
While high resolution microscopy techniques offer many benefits, they also have limitations. For instance, SEM and TEM require samples to be conductive or coated with conductive materials, which can alter the sample's properties. AFM can be challenging to use on very soft or sticky samples, and STM requires conductive samples. Additionally, these techniques often require complex sample preparation and can be time-consuming and expensive.
