Question

State what SEM stands for and outline how one works & the properties of its image.

SEM - scanning electron microscopeBeam of electrons is sent across the surface of a specimen and the reflected electrons are collectedBecause electrons are reflected, you can see the specimen's detailed surface features but not the interiorImage produced will look 3D and it will not be in color because we are using electrons for imaging, not light
