GLE - Graphics Layout Engine: Quality Graphs, Plots, Diagrams, and Figures

GLE Example: AFM.gle

!   These graphs illustrate the correlation of the heights and di-!
! ameters of a set of InAs self-organized quantum-dots (QD), grown!
! over GaAs by means of Molecular Beam Epitaxy.                   !
!   The figure was obtained by means of Atomic Force Microscopy.  !
! The histograms was obtained from the figure by counting and     !
! measuring the height and diameter of each quantum-dot (each     !
! circle). The correlation gives rise to what is known as quantum-!
! dots families.                                                  !
