Microscopy & Morphology
New technologies in medical devices and diagnostics are requiring smaller and smaller features to deliver unique treatment options. Advanced microscopy allows medical device professionals to better visualize materials and observe designed structures and layers. Advancements in microscopy have continued to allow for study of nanometer-scale features in conjunction with powerful sample preparation techniques.
We frequently encounter medical device professionals with the following questions about surface chemistry and properties:
- What is the molecular orientation?
- What is the thickness?
- What is the location of the defect and what is its structure?
