A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is an instrument for imaging surfaces at the atomic level.
What’s an STM image?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_tunneling_microscope
Tunneling=quantum mechanics term.
Works by measuring force of interaction between the probe and the surface.

You are under our control!
- 1990: IBM scientist Don Eigler used an STM to move single xenon atoms on a nickel surface
- The engineers moved 35 atoms to spell out "IBM" in a 10 micrometer logo.

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) produces images by scanning a sample with a focused beam of electrons. Yields topography and composition.
What’s an SEM image?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_electron_microscope
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a type of electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with electrons in the sample, producing various signals that can be detected and that contain information about the sample's surface topography and composition.

A systematic study of symmetric tilt-boundaries in
hard-sphere f.c.c. crystals
Abstract
A new method is developed for the search of mechanically stable configurations of symmetric tilt boundaries in hard sphere f.c.c. crystals. The problem of finding out relative displacements which minimize the total volume of two crystal blocks forming a boundary, is simplified to a problem of positioning a single atom sphere relative to a block which consists of real and “image” atoms; the latter are placed in such a way to reflect the arrangement in the other crystal block. The method (the image atom method) has been applied to the analysis of symmetric coincidence boundaries with [100], [110] and [111] tilt axes with ∑-values 3–103. For the [100] (013)∑5 boundary, the procedure of the analysis is described in detail; the derived structures are compared with those by computer simulation. Numerical data are given in tabulated forms for some boundaries.
