How Cryo-EM Differs from TEM

How Cryo-EM Differs from TEM

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-em) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) share many similarities, but their main difference is in sample prep.

Choosing the right scanning electron microscope for your laboratory

Choosing the right scanning electron microscope for your laboratory

This article introduces the imaging technique scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and gives readers guidance on the criteria to consider when choosing the right type of SEM instrument.

LPGC Pesticide Analysis

A New (Faster) Method for Pesticide Analysis: LPGC and Short Collision Cell Technology

Dramatically reduce analysis time of GC-MS/MS pesticide measurement by combining the separation efficiency and decreased elution time of an LPGC column with the enhanced SRM switching speed of the short collision cell of JEOL’s JMS-TQ4000GC.

Designing Better Batteries Through Innovative Microscopy Characterization

Lithium-ion batteries were commercially introduced in 1991, presenting new analytical challenges in the quest to improve the quality, safety, and lifespan of this fastest-growing battery chemistry. The basic structure of Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) contains as many as 10 different thin films that are synthesized to form at least that many solid−solid interfaces. These interfaces consist of thin layers of cathode material, insulating barriers, anode materials, metal current collectors, and the electrolyte. These various components are in the form of powders, sheets, and fluids and require an assessment before and after assembly and after repeated charge/discharge operations.
