What Challenges Exist in Nanotechnology Inspections?
Despite the advancements in inspection techniques, several challenges remain:
1. Scale and Resolution: Inspecting materials at the nanoscale requires extremely high resolution, which can be difficult to achieve. 2. Sample Preparation: Preparing samples without altering their structure can be challenging. 3. Standardization: Developing universally accepted standards for nanomaterial characterization is an ongoing process. 4. Cost: High-end inspection equipment and techniques can be expensive, limiting accessibility for some researchers and manufacturers.
