cn Zu Comparative Surface Investigations with the Light Microscope,
ch die the Electron Microscope and the Scanning Electron Microscope
en der
;h um Among the apparatuses used in this work for the investigation of comparatively rough
surfaces the scanning electron microscope has the largest range of application, since it offers
considerable variation in magnification at excellent depth of field. Very significant is the
plasticity of the scanning electron micrographs and the good perceptibility of „„cracks“ and
ı lokal „steps“ that are more or less perpendicular to the surface. The clearness of a relatively large
lie sich surface area and the possibility of a systematic „searching‘“ are also significant in the
Anrisse scanning electron microscope. On the other hand the exact correspondence of a replica, that
tischen has been observed in the transmission electron microscope, with certain areas of the original
surface (target preparation) meets considerable difficulties. The replica method can,
s Stahl however, offer advantages in the imaging of finest surface structures due to the higher
‚treten resolution of the transmission electron microscope. The content of information of a replica
hervor, in the transmission electron microscope depends, however, very much upon its quality and
r wird. thus on the know-how of the technician.
tischen The light microscope ranges still on first place for purely structural investigations up to
en der about 1000 times, since it permits the full use of the many possibilities of phase differen-
eilchen tiation.
