Thanks for your comments and perspective of an actual SEM user.

I've added another light source about 80 degrees to the right, we'll see if
that helps.

Hmmm, perhaps a little scattering media. Hate to see those render times
though.

Again, I think the biggest problem with the texture is that it is only a
bump map. If I knew of a way to introduce a little noise into my mesh....
