This chapter detects types and structure of ceramic and polymeric insulators. It also sheds light on improving efficiency and high voltage distribution through insulators string toward utilizing nanotechnology techniques. Furthermore, this chapter takes interest in displaying the effects of nanoparticles on overhead transmission lines (OHTL) insulators and high voltage distribution on suspension insulators. The importance and features of using polymeric and non-ceramic suspension insulators have been recently detailed. Thus, this chapter tackles and designs recent models for using individual and multiple nanoparticles in polymeric OHTL suspension insulators. It draws forecasts and recommendations for developing suspension insulators by using nanotechnology techniques.

Mature human dental enamel has presented investigators with several difficulties in ultramicrotomy of specimens for electron microscopy due to its high degree of mineralization. This study explores the possibility of combining ion-milling and high voltage electron microscopy as a means of circumventing the problems of ultramicrotomy.A longitudinal section of an extracted human third molar was ground to a thickness of about 30 um and polarized light micrographs were taken. The specimen was attached to a single hole grid and thinned by argon-ion bombardment at 15° incidence while rotating at 15 rpm. The beam current in each of two guns was 50 μA with an accelerating voltage of 4 kV. A 20 nm carbon coating was evaporated onto the specimen to prevent an electron charge from building up during electron microscopy.
