The new microscopes, also known as TEMs, are high-powered tools capable of capturing 3D microscopic images at atomic ...

Over the past few years we’ve seen several impressive projects where people try to manufacture integrated circuits using hobbyist tools. One of the most complex parts of this process is lithography: ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful imaging technique that utilizes a beam of accelerated electrons to visualize and analyze the structure, composition, and properties of materials at the nanoscale.

At many universities, student researchers rarely get the chance to even see a transmission electron microscope, or TEM, up ...

A new specimen holder gives scientists more control over ultra-cold temperatures, enabling the study of how materials acquire ...

This degree of magnification and resolution is made possible by the use of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, or FIB-SEM. Ordinary microscopes will not produce the same results. Curious ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine, together with international collaborators, have developed a new electron ...

Researchers have shown that expensive aberration-corrected microscopes are no longer required to achieve record-breaking microscopic resolution. Researchers at the University of Illinois at ...
