Learn about how Mark Raizen and his team at UT Austin have developed the world's highest resolution atom lens. An atom lens is analogous to a glass lens used in an optical microscope or magnifying ...

Researchers at the University of Victoria have developed a new imaging technique that could change the way scientists see the ...

Discover how researchers achieved high-resolution atomic-scale images using low-cost electron microscopes, transforming ...

A team of researchers at the University of Victoria (UVic) have achieved an advance in electron microscopy that will allow scientists to visualize atomic-scale structures with unprecedented clarity ...

Physicists have created the world’s fastest microscope, and it’s so quick that it can spot electrons in motion. The new device, a newer version of a transmission electron microscope, captures images ...

Since more than a decade it has been possible for physicists to accurately measure the location of individual atoms to a precision of smaller than one thousandth of a millimeter using a special type ...

Physicists in Germany are on the road to making an atom microscope, which uses atoms rather than light to explore the microworld. Their development of lenses and mirrors to sharpen atom laser beams ...

Canada is too-often the overlooked member of North America. But, as it turns out, they're doing all sorts of interesting things up there. The University of Alberta's National Institute of ...

Electron microscopes have been helping us see what the things around us are made of for decades. These microscopes use a beam of electrons to illuminate extremely small structures, but they can't ...

In a study published in Nature Communications, a research team demonstrates the all-electrical control of quantum ...

A molecule is a group of atoms bonded together. Molecules make up nearly everything around you – your skin, your chair, even your food. They vary in size, but are extremely small. You can’t see an ...
