Electron holography, a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technique, can be used to image a material’s crystal lattice, delivering valuable insights into the material’s electrostatic potential.

Carbon nanotube field emitters are at present the brightest available electron sources but must operate at low currents to avoid Coulomb expansion and are therefore not suitable for ultrafast imaging.

In this video, we explore fundamental concepts about the atom and the forces that govern it. **CHAPTERS** 0:00 - Why is the ...

Scientists have calculated how it is possible to look inside the atom to image individual electron orbitals. An electron microscope can't just snap a photo like a mobile phone camera can. The ability ...

Electron microscopes have been helping us see what the things around us are made of for decades. These microscopes use a beam of electrons to illuminate extremely small structures, but they can't ...

Scientists precisely removed a gold nanocluster's core atom and outer electron, revealing how spin state affects catalytic activity without structural loss. (Nanowerk News) In a breakthrough that ...

Ultrafast electron diffraction enables the study of molecular structural dynamics with atomic resolution at subpicosecond timescales, with applications in solid-state physics and rational drug design.
