A new type of advanced microscope (wide-field coherent multidimensional microscopy) has been developed. It uses a carefully ...

Julian Klein and Frances Ross explain how electron microscopes are becoming tools for engineering defects inside crystalline materials.

For decades, the scanning tunnelling microscope has been the gold standard for seeing matter one atom at a time. By hovering ...

Electrostatic repulsion between electrons usually impairs the performance of electron microscopes. Now it can be turned into an advantage. An electron microscope can be made to emit ultrashort bunches ...

The 2D materials comprise a single or double layer of atoms, so investigating their properties requires the use of electron microscopy. Point defects—such as missing atoms—can be instrumental in ...

Healthy cells are constantly breaking down proteins and building up new ones with the help of enzymes aptly named unfoldases, because they unravel proteins tagged for destruction or recycling. Now, a ...

A team of researchers from the University of Arizona have penned a new study detailing the creation of a microscope capable of capturing the speed of a electron. The new research has been published in ...
