Microscopic Methods

REM Operator

Microscopic methods are fundamental for characterizing the structure, sur
face and the chemical composition of materials, cells and tissues in order to
understand their behaviors and interactions. Various physical effects can be
used both for imaging of surfaces and for analyzing the structure and/or
chemical composition. Depending on the microscopic method used and the
preparation needed, these are destructive or non-destructive methods. The
choice of methods is essentially determined by the combination of the aim of
the investigation and the nature of the material, cell or tissue. This lecture
will focus on the combination of preparation and the type of microscopic in
vestigation with method-related applications as well as individual limitations
such as detection limits, lateral and spectral resolutions, qualitative and/or
quantitative measurements and others aspects for different types of micros
copy.
