Summary:	"Liquid cell electron microscopy allows us to apply the powerful imaging and analysis capabilities of the electron microscope to liquid samples, visualizing structures and processes in biology, materials science and physics that are traditionally inaccessible to electron microscopy. This book describes the study of liquids in transmission and scanning electron microscopes, covering techniques, applications and future opportunities. The first eight chapters explain closed and open cell electron microscopy, which are the two general strategies that have been developed for examining liquids. These chapters discuss experimental design, image resolution, and electron beam effects. The next ten chapters describe the impact of liquid cell electron microscopy in fields including electrochemistry, corrosion and batteries; nanocrystal growth, electron beam-induced processing, fluid physics, biomineralization, and biomaterials including whole cells. The final five chapters look ahead to technical advances that improve image resolution and enable analytical microscopy and holography of liquid samples. The overall aim of the book is to provide guidance in studying liquid samples with electron microscopy and to encourage its use in even more diverse fields of science"--!c Provided by publisher.

Description
Summary:	The first book on the topic, with each chapter written by pioneers in the field, this essential resource details the fundamental theory, applications, and future developments of liquid cell electron microscopy. This book describes the techniques that have been developed to image liquids in both transmission and scanning electron microscopes, including general strategies for examining liquids, closed and open cell electron microscopy, experimental design, resolution, and electron beam effects. A wealth of practical guidance is provided, and applications are described in areas such as electrochemistry, corrosion and batteries, nanocrystal growth, biomineralization, biomaterials and biological processes, beam-induced processing, and fluid physics. The book also looks ahead to the future development of the technique, discussing technical advances that will enable higher resolution, analytical microscopy, and even holography of liquid samples. This is essential reading for researchers and practitioners alike.
