Working with SEM: Procedure

  1. After preparing stub and inserting cup into slot, close the door of the SEM slowly. Make sure the green light is on before doing this! 
  2. Pressing the scanning button and map image. (the scanning button looks like a maze) 
  3. Label image by going into settings and hitting label.
  4. Zoom in to 2000x and press autofocus multiple times, until you have a clear image. 
  5. Then, press sharpen, to sharpen image as needed. 
  6. Once you have a clear image, press the camera button, and take picture.
  7. Zoom out, and go to different section(which includes the different samples), and continue with steps 4-6 for all 3 samples. Have approx. 3 images for each sample, for a total of 9 images.
