TEM offers several imaging techniques, each with unique advantages: - Bright Field Imaging: Electrons that pass through the sample without scattering form the image, providing contrast based on sample thickness and density. - Dark Field Imaging: Only scattered electrons are used to form the image, highlighting specific crystal orientations or defects. - High-Resolution TEM (HRTEM): Provides atomic-scale resolution by allowing the visualization of individual atoms within a crystal lattice. - Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS): Used for elemental analysis by detecting characteristic X-rays emitted from the sample.
