  • Samples can only be etched and viewed once, further attempts to etch will result in imaging problems such as gold flaking and imaging-induced damage
  • Depth profiles can be constructed using parallax only for relatively large holes
  • The diameter of holes increases linearly as a function of etch time
  • The SEM can be used to scan an entire piece of CR-39, but factors such as total scan time decrease its appeal as a new method of scanning
