The proposed electron microscope would function without the need for external vacuum pumps and thus have a significant reduction in size, mass, and power consumption, as compared to conventional (vacuum-pump-equipped) electron microscopes now used in many laboratories. These devices could be used for both imaging as well as chemical-composition determination, in laboratory and field applications. There may be a significant potential market for these devices in applications now served by conventional scanning and transmission electron microscopes in physical and biological sciences, engineering, medicine, and chemistry.
