		Observation of nanotubes morphology

		Determination of their shape, number…

		Pre-localization for SEM or AFM study


		Standard surf SiO2

		Optical Microscope with DIC mode

Polyamide nanotubes are generated by electrospinning* directly on the top of the Surf. Few twisted nanotubes are also visible.
