Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a powerful imaging technique that uses focused beams of electrons to scan the surface of a sample, providing high-resolution images with depth of field. SEM is particularly valuable in examining nanostructured materials for catalysis, as it reveals detailed surface morphology, topography, and composition, which are critical for understanding catalytic properties and enhancing material performance.
congrats on reading the definition of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). now let's actually learn it.
