Researchers used ultrafast microscopy to track electron motion with attosecond precision, unveiling unprecedented insights ...

Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

In a basement lab in Brandeis' Rosenstiel building, a refrigerator-sized microscope dominates a small, windowless room. On its surface, it looks like a featureless white box. Yet inside, it's a study ...

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 ...

Metals possess the unique ability to trap and concentrate light into spaces much smaller than its wavelength through a ...

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 ...

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 ...

Stretching protein samples in all directions pulls molecules farther apart, allowing them to be visualized using only light ...
