title: A technique for obtaining scanning electron micrographs in colour.
abstract: A digital electronic unit is described which, by modifying the video signal of the scanning electron microscope (SEM), permits the selection of images in separate tonal or grey-scale levels. By the sequential exposure of these grey levels onto colour film with the intervention of colour filters, coloured scanning electron micrographs have been obtained. Full details of the procedure are given. The process is applicable to any normal image capable of being displayed at the scanning electron microscope.
