The Children's Day of Microscopy organized by Carl Zeiss is this year's winner of the innovation contest titled "365 Places in the Land of Ideas". On invitation from Carl Zeiss this biology teaching event is taking place for the sixth time in the company from 9 to 12 November. Learning how to use Zeiss microscopes will open the door to research for the participating students and arouse their enthusiasm for technology and the natural sciences. The event is conducted in close collaboration with the teachers in order to support biology tuition.

The new nano piezo-Z stages from Physik Instrumente are optimized for very fast step and settle and easy integration into high-resolution microscope applications. They feature a very low profile a large aperture, and travel ranges of up to 200 µm with sub-nanometer closed-loop resolution-ideal for leading-edge microscopy and imaging applications. The piezo stages are designed for inverted microscopes from the four major manufacturers: Nikon, Olympus, Zeiss and Leica. The low profile design of 20 mm (0.8") facilitates the integration.

Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) excels through strength, wear resistance and toughness - characteristics that make ADI the material of choice for use in combustion engines and gear box components. This means that safety aspects are also involved in addition to purely functional aspects. For this reason, changes in the ADI production process need to be monitored with respect to the material´s characteristics and must be optimized systematically. For the micro- and nanoscopic analysis of the structure and precipitations, scientists typically use both light and electron microscopes.

In recent years there has been an ongoing trend to design specialized scanning electron microscopes, dedicated to specific applications. As a result two different system configurations in the SEM market have emerged: One configuration is dedicated to deliver high resolution imaging. The other configuration is dedicated to optimized analytical performance. However, these two diverging development lines force users to decide whether they will limit their research to high resolution imaging or optimized analytical investigations.
