Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have uncovered a new way to manipulate unusual magnetic states by exploiting “frustration” ...

Researchers with the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, have created an innovative method to visualize and analyze atomic structures ...

Researchers have created an innovative method to visualize and analyze atomic structures within specially designed, ultrathin bilayer 2D materials. (Nanowerk News) Researchers with the Oak Ridge ...

Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...

Researchers have developed a series of techniques to build carbon nanoribbons atom by atom, engineering their electronic properties from the ground up rather than carving them from bulk material.

This video explores the concept of "touch," explaining that it's not direct contact but rather electromagnetic repulsion between atoms. It dives into the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which illustrates ...

Scientists are exploring a new type of optical atomic clock based on ytterbium-173 ions that could help define the future standard for measuring time.

Researchers at Cornell University have developed a powerful imaging technique that reveals atomic scale defects inside computer chips for the first time. Using an advanced electron microscopy method, ...

What is Atom Probe Tomography? Atom Probe Tomography (APT) is a powerful analytical technique that provides three-dimensional (3D) imaging and chemical composition analysis of materials at the atomic ...
