Here I review the capabilities, prospects and ultimate limits for the measurement of physical and electronic properties of nanoscale structures with these new microscopes. Given that interatomic ...

Discover how a structural breakthrough in the chikungunya virus is opening new avenues for antiviral drug development and ...

So although it is extremely tempting to think of atomic structures as being shadow-cast in an electron microscope, this view is incorrect and misleading. As the electron waves propagate through ...

Quasicrystals, once considered impossible, were found in a 3D-printed aluminum alloy – and they make it stronger. This could ...

Cryo-electron microscopy doesn’t have this issue. The microscope operator has to flash freeze the sample. A better understanding of protein structure can further research into things such as ...

The JEOL 1400 High Contrast Transmission Electron Microscope is a state-of-the-art imaging system ... essential tool for researchers seeking high-resolution insights into the structure and composition ...

Although this was a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) rather than an SEM ... This technique provides information about the internal structure of the sample, revealing details at an atomic level.

Scientists have developed a tiny flower-shaped structure that’s made of a ... produced in various geometries Under the scanning electron microscope, the special metamaterial looks like tiny ...

When all you’ve got is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And when you’ve got a scanning electron microscope, everything must look like a sample that would be really, really interesting ...

"Using the electron microscope, individual supercomplexes were clearly visible—we could directly see their structures and how they work. The respiratory supercomplexes pump protons across the ...

The limit of resolution of the transmission electron microscope is now less than 1 nm. The TEM has revealed structures in cells that are not visible with the light microscope.
