Trying out my Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) at home in my living room, with the tungsten filament of a small light bulb.
Jeol JSM-T200
-25 kV Accelerating voltage
-Secondary Electron detector used for this video
-Size of monitor is approximately 10 cm vertically
-Magnification is seen in the red 7-segment display
A std microscope reaches its limits at around 1000x, a SEM can go much higher since the electrons are "smaller" than the wavelength of normal light. Also you have many other benefits of an SEM and also some complications.
