Method: Imaging

or Imaging and Microscopy, technical equipment is used to see objects that are too small to see with the naked eye. Due to their short wavelengths, X-rays can be used to image samples down to the nanoscale. Imaging can be combined with microscopy or spectroscopy to get further information about a sample, such as chemical composition.
