Microscopes have long been scientists’ eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale structures. However, even the most powerful optical microscopes have been ...

Physicists have created the world’s fastest microscope, and it’s so quick that it can spot electrons in motion. The new device, a newer version of a transmission electron microscope, captures images ...

ABLASCAN, a plug-and-play microscope developed by French deep tech startup Ablatom, can reveal the atomic composition of materials in just milliseconds. Demonstrated at the ongoing CES 2025, the ...

All matter is made of very small units called atoms. Atoms are so small they cannot be seen using a regular microscope. Scientists have discovered a way to “see” atoms using a special instrument ...

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 ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis. (Nanowerk ...

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory made a big leap in their research into all things small. Within the past few months, scientists there began using what they say is the world’s most ...

The DIGIT imaging tool could enable the design of quantum devices and shed light on atomic-scale processes in cells and tissues. (Nanowerk News) If you think of a single atom as a grain of sand, then ...

Wiggling atoms in new quantum materials could lead to more efficient electronics that are smaller and faster. These new materials have surprising properties and could be key elements for ...
