"This work is an excellent example of the materials advances possible when we close the feedback loop between first principles calculations and atomic resolution electron microscopy," says researcher

Method gives scientists new ways to study rapid nuclear motions in nature's light-dependent processes

Recently developed superresolution (SR) microscopy breaks the diffraction limit and offers the requisite spatial resolution but usually at the cost of slow imaging speed and excessive damage

With a similar technology found in today's smartphone cameras—biologists are getting new images of our cells and rapidly uncovering never-seen-before details

Worldwide, almost 10 million people become ill with Tuberculosis, and nearly 2 million die from the disease each year, according to the World Health Organization

Scientists determined new molecular-level information at the solid liquid interface, pushing toward better energy storage devices

Researchers tackle a grand challenge by capturing vibrations in the “magic” cage formed when 21-water molecules capture a single proton

Researchers reveal the structure of individual chemical bonds using specialized imaging techniques

Visible lasers offer exquisite control of x-ray light in a tabletop apparatus, potentially providing access to new insights to chemical reactions, proteins, and even atoms’ inner workings

Previously unobserved scattering shows unexpected sensitivity to bound electrons, providing new insights into x-ray interactions with matter and opening the door to new probes of matter

Microscopic damage eventually leads to failure in polymers and composite materials, but it is difficult to detect without the aid of specialized equipment

Using an atomic force microscope, the team of researchers has now succeeded in displaying this reaction at atomic resolution
