Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: ...

A unique laboratory at Michigan Tech captured microscopic photography of snowflakes in a demonstration of the lab's high-powered scanning electron microscope. The Applied Chemical and Morphological ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...

A triptych of microscope images that shows the binding of a host defense peptide, named MAD1-RI, to the membrane of tuberculosis pathogens, leading to destruction of the bacterial cell wall and death.

Thermal imaging reveals heat that our eyes cannot see. Discover the insights behind creating a simple thermal camera ...
