An Anomalous Contrast of Insulators in Scanning Electron Microscope: The Split Image

Materials Science 2016-04-18 v1

Abstract

A novel phenomenon of anomalous contrast in scanning electron microscope when the instrument is used to observe an insulator specimen with a wolfram probe, we called double imaging, is reported in this article. We give a detail analysis of this phenomenon in its occurrence, and discuss the influence of the added probe to internal electric field which lead to the occurrence of double imaging.
