✦ Synopsis

Imaging of soft matter, including polymeric and biological materials, has always been one of the big challenges in electron microscopy, due to the electrically insulating properties and radiation/vacuum-sensitive nature of such specimens. We briefly highlight recent advances that enable high-resolution characterization of soft nano-materials, in the native state, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and environmental SEM (ESEM).

## Abstract The imaging and characterization of dislocations is commonly carried out by thin foil transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using diffraction contrast imaging. However, the thin foil approach is limited by difficult sample preparation, thin foil artifacts, relatively small viewable are
