MXenes are an important recent discovery in two-dimensional (2D) materials research. Since the unique 2D material class was discovered, electron microscopy techniques have been the primary method used ...
Electron microscopy has increasingly found more applications in recent years. Every sample has a mixture of optimized settings that must be utilized to enhance the results of the investigation. This ...
Microscopy techniques have been around for many decades and are always improving. The field itself has had to improve because the samples being analyzed have been getting smaller and smaller, ...
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is an advanced analytical tool that massively outstrips the capabilities of traditional light microscopy. Using visible wavelengths of light on the 400 – 700 ...
We are at a critical time and supporting science journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen scientific ...
Attending the RAISe+ Scheme Signing Ceremony are Professor Chen Fu-Rong (2nd left) and his research team members: Professor Hsueh Yu-Chun (1st left), Dr Chen Yan (2nd right) and Mr Chen Yuchi (1st ...
Despite their name, giant viruses are difficult to visualize in detail. They are too big for conventional electron microscopy, yet too small for optical microscopy used to study larger specimens. Now, ...
James Hillier, the Canadian-born physicist who made the first practical electron microscope, then personally convinced hundreds of scientists to use it, has died. He was 91. Hillier died of a stroke ...
Four years ago the first modern electron microscope was exhibited by the Siemens & Halske A.-G., in Berlin (TIME, June 6, 1938). Two years ago the R.C.A. Laboratories completed the first commercial ...
