Application note: A study of single-wall carbon nanotubes using Renishaw's structural and chemical analyser for scanning electron microscopy (pdf)

Electron imaging and Raman spectroscopy are established techniques for viewing and analysing carbon nanotubes. Performing these two techniques usually requires the sample being transferred between a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a Raman spectrometer. This application note illustrates the advantages of Renishaw’s structural and chemical analyser (SCA) for simultaneous secondary electron imaging and Raman spectroscopy of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).
