Chromate -, resolution

Once the primary electron beam is created, it must be demagnified with condenser lenses and then focused onto the sample with objective lenses. These electron lenses are electromagnetic in nature and use electric and magnetic fields to steer the electrons. Such lenses are subject to severe spherical and chromatic aberrations. Therefore, a point primary beam source is blurred into a primary beam disk to an extent dependent on the energy and energy spread of the primary electrons. In addition, these lenses are also subject to astigmatism. AH three of these effects ultimately limit the primary beam spot size and hence, the lateral resolution achievable with sem. 

The two limitations of optical interferometry, the one-quarter wavelength of light limit and the low resolution, have been addressed by using a combination of a fixedthickness spacer layer and spectral analysis of the reflected beam. The first of these overcomes the minimum film thickness that can normally be measured and the second addresses the limited resolution of conventional chromatic interferometry. 

It is essential to use Kohler illumination, which is a method for adjusting the illumination pathway to achieve maximum resolution and minimum chromatic error. The information is in the documentation for your... 

Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR) is a very high-resolution mass spectral method (105 to 106, with mass accuracy better than 1 ppm), which allows separation and empirical formula measurement of potentially thousands of metabolites without chromatic separation. 

The resolution of tris(catecholato)chromate(III) has been achieved by crystallization with L-[Co(en)3]3+ the diastereomeric salt isolated contained the L-[Cr(cat)3]3 ion.793 Comparison of the properties of this anion with the chromium(III) enterobactin complex suggested that the natural product stereospeeifically forms the L-cis complex with chromium(III) (190). The tris(catecholate) complex K3[Cr(Cat)3]-5H20 crystallizes in space group C2/c with a = 20.796, 6 = 15.847 and c = 12.273 A and jS = 91.84° the chelate rings are planar.794 Electrochemical and spectroscopic studies of this complex have also been undertaken.795 Recent molecular orbital calculations796 on quinone complexes are consistent with the ligand-centred redox chemistry generally proposed for these systems.788...

Consideration of Surface Analysis Concerns. The researchers in this study used a wide range of surface and other tools, taking appropriate advantage of the strengths of the various methods. Previous work had shown that AES and XPS could be used to study chromate films without unreasonable problems and provided a basis for the current study. XPS was used to obtain specific chemical information while AES was used whenever spatial resolution and electron imaging were desired. RBS and electron microprobe work was used to analyze composition structures of thicker layers. 

A limiting factor in electron microscopy is the quality of the electron beam. Aberrations introduced by the optics limit both spatial resolution and analytical capabilities. There is a need to correct for the spherical and chromatic aberrations introduced by the electron optics. This will result in improved coherence of the beam and improved imaging and diffraction. In particular, these advances will permit the analysis of amorphous samples. Smaller beam sizes can also be achieved, allowing for sub-Angstrom resolution chemical analysis of samples. Development of higher-quality electron beams and short pulses of electron beams would broaden and deepen the application of electron microscopy. 

Van de Water et al. (2005a,b) developed a design for spatially resolved UV-vis spectroscopy. The fiber optical probe remains in a fixed position, while the specimen is moved by moving the platform with the cell. The spatial resolution is reported to be 100 /im. The apparatus was used to follow the impregnation of an alumina pellet with solutions containing nickel ions, chromate, or polyoxometallates.
