Surface of the moon

An adherence of the phosphor bronze surface is observed with Vacc. 200 kV SEM. The sample surface and internal information can be observed spontaneously when high acceleration secondary electron with more than Vacc 200 kV is used. This structure of this micro world looks like the surface of the moon floating in a macro-cosmos.

At 56th photo contest hosted by the Japanese Society of Electron Microscopy in 2000.
