High contrast image with saturation Left Normal image Center Lo contrast image Right Scan Speed ocan speed is an important parameter with many ramifications In general for a fast scan speed the image contains more noise snow and for a slower speed the image becomes less noisy and more highly resolved However the fast scans reflect real time movement of the stage better than the slow scans This gives the operator an easier view of stage movement and allows a faster positioning ability Because the SEM imaging technique is inherently slow any speed improvement will become highly appreciated by the operator as experience level increases When the stage is positioned with the desired image in position the scan rate can be slowed to set the focus and reduce noise for image capture The Title Scanning Electron Microscope Operation Page 32 of 85 Author Roger Robbins Date 9 29 2015 The University of Texas at Dallas software can be trained to automatically impose the fast scan if you move the stage This command is found in Tools User Preferences stage Fast Scanning ON or OFF There are other digital manipulation techniques to reduce noise in the image Under the scan tab there is a box that allows the user to choose various noise reduction methods such as pixel averaging frame averaging and the extent of averaging In the pixel averaging technique the SEM captures a settable number of brightness samples a
