Researchers have combined two microscopic imaging techniques in one microscope, providing scientists with a high-resolution method of tracking single molecules in a cellular context. The development ...

Researchers have succeeded in filming the interactions of light and matter in an electron microscope with attosecond time resolution. Electron microscopes give us insight into the tiniest details of ...

Electron microscopes are used to visualize the structure of solids, molecules, or nanoparticles with atomic resolution. However, most materials are not static. Rather, they interact, move, and reshape ...

Behold, the world’s fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it’s the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

Using light to measure ever-smaller objects has been central to progress in many scientific disciplines for centuries. As far back as 1873, German physicist Ernst Abbe proved that light diffraction ...

A comparison of experimental annular dark field (ADF)-scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron ptychography in uncorrected and aberration-corrected electron microscopes. In the ...

You can tell a lot about a material based on the type of light shining at it: Optical light illuminates a material's surface, ...

The subatomic world is hard to image not just because it’s incredibly tiny, but super fast too. Now physicists at the University of Arizona have developed the world’s fastest electron microscope to ...

Electron microscopes give us insight into the tiniest details of materials and can visualize, for example, the structure of solids, molecules or nanoparticles with atomic resolution. However, most ...

Researchers have shown that expensive aberration-corrected microscopes are no longer required to achieve record-breaking microscopic resolution. Researchers at the University of Illinois at ...
