Chiral metasurfaces can strongly twist the polarization of light, but how this process unfolds in space and time has been unclear. Scientists in China have now used ultrafast electron microscopy and ...

For the first time, scientists have recorded electrons in the act of snapping chemical bonds, turning an abstract quantum ...

When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...

As part of an expansion of the Eyring Science Center, BYU is installing two transmission electron microscopes. The new microscopes, also known as TEMs, are high-powered tools capable of capturing 3D ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Scanning transmission electron microscopy, or STEM, is a powerful imaging technique that enables researchers to study a material’s morphology, composition, and bonding behavior at the angstrom scale.

In this interview, AZoMaterials speaks with Professor Sarah Haigh, Professor of Materials Characterization at the University of Manchester, about her pioneering work in electron microscopy and its ...
