The main advantages of FTIR spectroscopy are: non-destructive technique, increased speed of collection of spectra, increased sensitivity with high resolution capability, increased optical throughput and mechanical simplicity.
1-D structures like single wall CNTs (SWCNTs) are the preferred samples to demonstrate the high resolution capability of a TERS instrument.
The MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) estimator has been widely studied for a long time for its high resolution capability in the domain of the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, with the sources assumed to be point.
Employing the high resolution capability of the scanning electron microscope, this replication method characterized fatigue crack growth rates of the 7075-T651 alloynum alloy for cracks as small as 10 μm in length.
A broad range of exposure dose is critical because a relatively low dose is needed to reveal the high resolution capability when the beam is well focused, yet a high dose is essential to self-develop the resist to a certain visible depth when the beam is seriously enlarged.
In order to investigate the high resolution capability of nitrocellulose resist, periodic line array with a period of 600 nm was exposed at 20 keV over a broad line dose range and subsequently coated with 30 nm Cr for SEM imaging.
Although many established fluorescence imaging techniques offer high resolution capability, their effectiveness depends on photobleaching rates and signal-to-noise ratio.
Finnigan MAT in Germany introduced the Neptune MC-ICP-MS, a double focusing C-shape instrument with a large magnet providing 16% mass dispersion, movable collector array, and high resolution capability.
The high resolution capability together with other properties such as ease of use, lack of ionizing radiation, patient comfort, and low cost have made OCT extremely popular for imaging retinal cell layers in the macular cube in both ophthalmology [ 1] and neurology [ 2].
