The use of artificial intelligence has enabled researchers at the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) to gain a greater ...

A new imaging technique uncovers how electronic patterns in quantum materials evolve unevenly across space and temperature.

An international team of researchers built a highly sensitive quantum microscope and used it to directly observe, for the first time at room temperature, how electrons subtly interact with each other ...

A new analysis reveals what happens when very short or narrow electron beams encounter a particle. The research is published ...

It’s a problem that few of us will ever face, but if you ever have to calibrate your scanning electron microscope, you’ll need a resolution target with a high contrast under an electron beam. This ...

A single gold nanorod, far smaller than a wavelength of visible light, can be coaxed into emitting circularly polarized ...

In transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where the electron beam passes through the sample to be directly imaged on the detector below, it is often necessary to support the thin samples on a grid.

TEM works by transmitting a beam of electrons through an ultra-thin specimen. As the electrons interact with the specimen, they are scattered or transmitted, producing an image that is magnified and ...

Electron microscopy combined with X-ray microanalysis represents a pivotal suite of techniques that have transformed research in materials science, physics and engineering. Utilizing focused beams of ...

They can image a wide range of materials and biological samples with high magnification, resolution, and depth of field, thereby revealing surface structure and chemical composition. Industries like ...

According to [Asianometry], no one believed in the scanning electron microscope. No one, that is, except [Charles Oatley].The video below tells the whole story. The Cambridge graduate built radios ...
