A Polychromatic scanning electron micrograph of the skeletal details of the coral, Coscinaraea sp. Using an array of electron detectors, we can deconstruct and spatially resolve the entire electron scatter field emitted from the surface of a sample. After color-coding the electron detection profiles from multiple angles, we can subsequently recombine these signals for the generation of a polychromatic scanning electron micrograph, where variability in surface topography is revealed in a dazzling array of…
