ABSTRACTThe interface between ZnSe thin films and GaAs substrates is characterized by High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy and room temperature Spectroscopic Ellipsometry. The films were grown on (001) GaAs by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. A three-phase model is used in the reduction of the ellipsometric data, from which the presence of a transition layer of Ga2Se3, with a thickness of less than 1 nm, is confirmed. These results corroborate the high resolution transmission electron microscopy images obtained from the same samples.

Automatic image processing of transmission electron microscopy images (TEM) is a utopia often pursued, considering the thousands of images necessary to ensure a high resolution 3D reconstruction of virus particles or other macromolecular machines.

We propose a tool for a rapid high-resolution detection of calcium ions which can be used in parallel with other techniques. We have applied a new approach by  photo-oxidation of diaminobenzidine in presence of the emission of an excited fluorochrome specific for calcium detection. This method combines the selectivity of available fluorophores to the high spatial resolution offered by transmission electron microscopy to detect even fluorescing molecules even when present in low amounts in membrane-bounded organelles. We show in this paper that Mag-Fura 2 photoconversion via diaminobenzidine oxidation is an efficient way for localizing Ca2+ ions at EM level, is easily carried out and reproducible, and can be obtained on a good amount of cells, since the exposition in our conditions is not limited to the direct irradiation of the sample via an objective but obtained with a germicide lamp. The end product is sufficiently electron dense to be detected clearly when present in sufficient amount within a membrane boundary.

A Windows-based computer program has been developed for exit-wave reconstruction and experimental high-resolution transmission electron microscopy image alignment. While the exit-wave reconstruction is performed mainly using the maximum-likelihood method, image alignments may be carried out using several algorithms, including the time-consuming but robust genetic algorithm.
