[Application of the ion-thinning methods to the high-resolution study of human dental enamel crystals]
Abstract:
Ion thinning technique applied to high resolution T.E.M. study of human dental enamel crystallites makes it possible to visualize a great number of dislocations. Dislocations proved not to be due to artifacts induced by the ultramicrotome diamond knife. They are related to the crystal apartite structure.
