Identify the objects in the images!

All SEM images are originally greyscale. Every 'color' SEM image you have ever seen has been processed either automatically or manually (and quite tediously we might add . . . ) using some type of image processing software. The color SEM images on this site are no exception!

Please note that these images are all copyrighted by the South Campus Instrumentation Center. Feel free to use them for educational or personal purposes, and contact us if you need more information about the nature of the samples. All we ask for is acknowledgement and perhaps a link to our web page. Enjoy!
