Almost atomic resolution is achieved in images of the surface structures of zeolites obtained by electron microscopy, as demonstrated in studies of synthetic faujasite (FAU, shown on the right) and its hexagonal polymorph EMT. In contrast, the surface of a dealuminated form of zeolite Y was shown to be coated with an amorphous layer. The steps found on the crystal surface allow conclusions concerning crystal growth to be drawn.
