Optimizing the geometric parameters of polymer nanoantenna arrays significantly improves the performance of optical ...

Electron microscopy uses a beam of electrons to illuminate a sample and achieve much higher spatial resolution than light microscopy. Transmission electron microscopy generates an image of the ...

Electrons play many roles in solid materials. When they are weakly bound and able to travel—i.e., mobile—they can enable ...

Transmission electron microscopy articles from across Nature Portfolio Transmission electron microscopy is a general type of electron microscopy that generates an image of the internal structure ...

A set of breakthroughs from scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) is ...

Excitons have been created by injecting an electron into a molecule, and then removing another one, in rapid succession.

In the frozen reaches of the planet—glaciers, mountaintops, and icy groundwater—scientists have uncovered strange ...

A newly discovered cell helps pythons digest entire skeletons—and might be present in other bone-eating predators, too.

The blue shark ( Prionace glauca) might be more than its name. Scientists investigating the sleek ocean predator's skin ...

XRM microscopy, combined with machine learning, revolutionizes materials research by enhancing imaging techniques for failure ...

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven ...

A new approach breaks down complicated designs into modular building blocks for easy assembly from the bottom up.
