Workflow

  1. Prepare for Sem Imaging

    30 minutes

    Gather required equipment and verify conditions for sem imaging.

  2. Set Up Workspace

    1 hour

    Configure workspace, calibrate instruments, and prepare materials.

  3. Execute Sem Imaging Procedure

    2-4 hours

    Follow the established protocol for sem imaging, recording observations.

  4. Analyze and Document Results

    1-2 hours

    Process collected data, compare against standards, and document findings.

Sem Imaging ProcedureStandard

Standard operating procedure for sem imaging.

Safety ProtocolStandard

Follow field and lab safety protocols specific to nanotechnology.

  • Calibrate First

    Uncalibrated instruments produce unusable data — verify zero and span before each session.

  • Contamination Control

    Clean workspace between samples to prevent cross-contamination.

  • Chemical Hazards

    Review SDS for all chemicals before use — know spill response procedures.

Safety Notes

  • Follow cleanroom gowning protocol without exception.
  • Nanoparticle aerosols require fume hood and respirator when dry.
