(Phys.org)—IBM scientists have been able to differentiate the chemical bonds in individual molecules for the first time using a technique known as noncontact atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results ...

A new breakthrough is transforming MXenes—ultra-thin, high-tech materials—into something far more powerful and precise.

Researchers are using a technique they developed to observe minute distortions in the atomic structure of complex materials, shedding light on what causes these distortions and opening the door to ...

An imaging technique that freezes tiny biological objects such as proteins and viruses in place so that scientists can peer into their structures at the scale of atoms has won its developers the 2017 ...

The nanomaterial vanadyl hydroxide behaves more like a pseudocapacitor than a battery when it forms as a star-shaped ...
