This was part of a project calls for a new microscope for direct observation and analysis of individual nanostructures at an unprecedented resolution of 0.5 Angstrom — approximately one-third the size of a carbon atom – a key dimension for atomic level research.

According to Carl Zeiss SMT, this new breed of microscope is expected to provide images of unrivalled ultra-high resolution surface and material contrast, unachievable with state-of-the-art technologies of today.
The microscope uses a beam of Helium ions, which can be focused into a smaller probe size and reveal a much stronger sample interaction compared to electrons typically used in scanning electron microscopes (SEM), to generate the signals to be measured and imaged.

Dear Sir/Madam:
We are researchers from Shih Hsin University and are launching a new
survey, this is non-profit academic research. In this survey, we would
like to know your opinions about the topics of adoption and safety of
new energy related technology, and your opinion about Kyoto Protocol
related media issues. Your answers will produce valuable information
for our researchers. Your personal details will not be made publicly
available. You can find the URL as below:

As thanks for your participating in our survey, we offer four
screen savers. The screen savers will be available for download on the
final page of the questionnaire. They include photos of BMW H2R
hydrogen vehicle, BMW hybrid car, Honda hybrid cars 2001-2006 and
Honda fuel cell vehicles. Would you please complete the questionnaire
as part of the survey? Thank you for your cooperation.
