EPFL scientists have made an important discovery about the structure of barium titanate, a material used in everyday objects. Their findings refute existing theories on the displacement of the ...

Scientists have devised a 3D-printed optical microscope that can detect individual molecules and image biological samples with ultrahigh resolution 1. State-of-the-art microscopes provide impressive ...

Protein aggregates associated with neurodegenerative disease have stubbornly resisted researchers’ efforts to get a good look at them. They refuse to crystallize well or yield to standard ...

Scientists are reporting the first 3-D images of an individual protein ever obtained with enough clarity to determine its structure. When Gang Ren whirls the controls of his cryo-electron microscope, ...

A closer look at snail teeth under the microscope revealing surprising details about their structure and function.#Microscope ...

A new momentum microscopy experimental station for photoelectron spectroscopy resolved in 3D momentum space with a microscopic field of view has been built at BL6U of UVSOR *, Institute for Molecular ...

There’s an old joke that you can’t trust atoms — they make up everything. But until fairly recently, there was no real way to see individual atoms. You could infer things about them using X-ray ...

A video showing the structure and function of the transmission electron microscope. It details all the different compartments of the transmission electron microscope and the theory and principle of ...

In a study published today in Science, UT Southwestern and Rockefeller University researchers used advanced microscopes to determine at atomic resolution the structure of a molecular complex ...
