In an unprecedented demonstration, researchers from the U.S. and South Korea were able to use a technology that's nearly identical to today's full-size magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines to ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light. Researchers from the Physical Chemistry and Theory departments at the Fritz ...

A new ultra-high-resolution microscope has photographed the shadow of a single atom for the first time - an achievement which took five years. 'We wanted to investigate how few atoms are required to ...

The QUASAR group at the University of Liverpool has been awarded funding from Innovate UK to develop a new type of microscope for non-destructive imaging of delicate structures. Building on the team’s ...

IBM Research has made a breakthrough in data storage by succeeding in storing one bit of data on a single atom. Featured is Christopher Lutz of IBM Research, standing with IBM's Nobel-prize winning ...

Canada is too-often the overlooked member of North America. But, as it turns out, they're doing all sorts of interesting things up there. The University of Alberta's National Institute of ...

Seventy years ago, in Osmond Laboratory on Penn State's University Park campus, Erwin W. Müller, Evan Pugh Research Professor of Physics, became the first person to "see" an atom. In doing so, Müller ...
