This is not an artist’s rendering, nor a physics simulation. This device held together with hardware-store MDF and eyebolts and connected to a breadboard, is taking pictures of actual atomic ...

An international research team has succeeded in controlling the chirality of individual molecules through structural isomerization. The team also succeeded in synthesizing highly reactive diradicals ...

The development of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) in high magnetic fields has opened new avenues in nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy. By utilising quantum tunnelling in precisely engineered ...

There are numerous examples in science in which a radically different conceptual approach to solving a problem at hand has resulted in a major scientific breakthrough. Such is the case for scanning ...

Indian researcher, VPS Awana, says that using Scanning Tunneling Microscopes, that samples of LK99 possibly room temperature superconducting material could have superconductivity measured. Scanning ...

(Nanowerk News) Semiconductors are foundational components of modern energy, communication, and myriad other technologies. Research on tailoring the underlying nanostructure of semiconductors for ...

A new technical paper titled “Externally-triggerable optical pump-probe scanning tunneling microscopy with a time resolution of tens-picosecond” was published by researchers at University of Tsukuba ...

Scanning Tunneling Microscopes (STMs) are amazing tools which can manipulate singular atoms, but they cannot characterize these atoms as they act only on the outer electron shell. Meanwhile X-ray ...

A sophisticated analysis of experimental ARPES data confirmed that the electronic properties of each chain are truly one-dimensional, and calculations further predict an exciting phase transition. For ...
