Researchers use tightly focused laser beams to image biological samples, shape materials with microscopic precision and ...

Chemical clues preserved in tiny shells reveal that ocean acidification doomed a group of planktonic organisms that have ...

An electron microscope can now distinguish, at the scale of columns of atoms, how certain electrons are distributed around ...

Today we're looking at Electron Beam Lithography using a scanning electron microscope.

The US has installed a custom-made electron microscope that has the potential to transform future research into battery technology, semiconductors, quantum computing and advanced materials. The new ...

Tungsten mineralisation confirmed across entire 12km Glenburgh mineralised corridor within the mining lease. Elevated tungsten concentrations via routine ICP-MS analysis are observed closely ...

For those of us who weren't paying attention, over the last few years, scientists around the world have been one-upping each other in a bid to create the smallest QR code that can be reliably read.

Physically magnifying objects using a key moisture-absorbing ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world. When you slip a slide under a microscope, a system of glass ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...

STARKVILLE, Miss.—Mississippi State’s Institute for Imaging and Analytical Technologies soon will be home to a scanning electron microscope so advanced that it will be the first of its kind in the ...

TEM works by accelerating electrons, typically with energies between 80 and 300 kV, and directing them through a specimen thin enough for electron transmission. Because of their very short wavelength ...

Led by Arthur Blackburn, co-director of UVic's Advanced Microscopy Facility, the team developed a novel imaging technique that allowed them to achieve sub-Ångström resolution using a compact, ...
