Why electron microscopy is critical for battery research
6 Jun 2025In this application note, Hitachi High-Tech Europe demonstrates how scanning electron microscopy (SEM), coupled with powerful cross-sectioning techniques like ion-beam milling, can enable researchers to precisely observe the structures, morphology and material distribution, to support energy storage research.

Electron MicroscopyElectron microscopes (EM) are used to create high-resolution images of samples at the nanoscale by means of an accelerated beam of electrons as a source of illumination. Types of electron microscope include scanning electron microscopes (SEM), transmission electron microscopes (TEM), scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEM) and cryo-electron microscopes. Focused ion beam (FIB) microscopes are useful for modifying or milling a sample surface with nanometer precision, as well as imaging.
