At our institute the F200X is used to obtain conventional electron micrographs of Carbon-based nano structures such as, carbon-nano-tubes(CNTs), carbon-nano-helices(CNHs), carbon-nano-fibres, tubular-graphitic-cones(TGCs), and thin film systems. Crystollographic information of the above stated materials is interpreted from the SAED patterns. Chemical compositional analysis of multi phase thin film systems is carried out using the EDS system.
