How it Works

• Filament is shaped so that a weak point is
  created to draw the electrons off with an
  electromagnet.
• The magnet is a doughnut shape pulling the
  electrons through the center with such force that
  it cant be pulled back.

How It Works II

• The electron beam is kept in alignment through
  apertures (little holes that act as magnifiers).
• They are directed to the sample, bounce off, and
  are picked up by the detector.

4
The Problem

• Sometimes the Sample has to be mounted at an
  angle and that stretches the beam.
• Sometimes you need to look at more than a simple
  surface.

5
The Solution

• By making use of various configurations. And
  changing the image with programs like Photoshop,
  we can correct the distorted images or look at
  them in 3-D to gain depth perception.
