Abstract

This bibliometric analysis explores the state of the art of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and its applications in materials science,
using data collected from the Web of Science database between 2003 and 2024, and the Bibliometrix tool. The objective is to identify emerging trends and highlight the most relevant research areas in materials science. The results reveal an average annual growth of 7.59% in the production of scientific publications, with China, India and the United States leading the academic contribution in this field. Among the main research areas identified are materials synthesis and characterization, corrosion resistance, nanotechnology, composite materials, and biomaterials. Likewise, a significant increase is observed in studies related to nanotechnology, biomaterials, and the use of complementary techniques to SEM, such as Raman spectroscopy. In conclusion, SEM is consolidated as an essential tool for the materials characterization, with increasingly diverse applications across multiple disciplines and its role in the development of innovative technologies. Furthermore, the study highlights the usefulness of bibliometric analysis as an effective method for evaluating scientific production and highlight key data in a scientific field.
