Recently, Digital Instruments announced that an image submitted
by Advanced Surface Microscopy was selected for the 1997 DI Calendar,
to be displayed for the month of November. The image, shown below,
shows the transparent coating on the inside of an aluminum beverage
can. Phase imaging shows that the surface principally consists
of two or three different materials. Fine bumps selectively decorate
the discontinuous phase (bright areas). Sample courtesy of O'Malia's
Grocery.
