Solution
The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is the instrument used to examine the surface structure of materials at high magnification. It works by scanning a focused beam of electrons across the surface of a sample. The electrons interact with the atoms on the surface, producing signals that are used to create an image of the surface's topography, morphology, and composition.
