This is an excellent question. Glad you asked. I don't think the answer is as easy as it seems.

Sorry, Rebel, didn't mean to kill your Friday. This is a topic that I started working on with Greg Graziani a year or so ago, but I dropped the ball because I got overwhelmed in trying to find contract electron microscopy laboratories that didn't charge a "caramel glow" for a couple of pics. Actually, its not THAT expensive, but still beyond my budget right now.
