Using a “spooky” phenomenon of quantum physics, Caltech researchers have discovered a way to double the resolution of light microscopes. In a paper appearing in the journal Nature Communications, a ...

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 ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Within a modest engineering laboratory at Duke University, a new type of researcher is quietly at work next to an optical microscope. This new researcher has no need for coffee, does not become tired, ...

A team of researchers has developed the first transmission electron microscope which operates at the temporal resolution of a single attosecond, allowing for the first still-image of an electron in ...
