Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM): A type of scanning probe ... Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs): Cylindrical nanostructures made of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, known for their exceptional ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...

The researchers use a scanning transmission electron microscope ... populating the exact same places where the carbon atom had been with tin atoms. "We believe that atomic-scale synthesis ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have elucidated how hydrogen and carbon monoxide is adsorbed into solids ...

Demonstrated at the ongoing CES 2025, the microscope uses cutting-edge laser technology to automatically identify atoms. It is able to identify atoms up to 10 times faster than conventional laser ...

Scanning transmission electron microscopy experiments have uncovered the structural changes a ruthenium catalyst undergoes ...

Scientists have developed a new advanced microscopy tool to “write” with atoms, placing those atoms exactly where they are ...

With its high volumetric energy density, ammonia holds promise as a zero-carbon energy carrier ... and so we developed a microscopy approach to count the atoms in each nanocluster of the catalyst ...

A physicist explains how atoms arrange themselves into molecules – and how scientists are able to image these tiny bits of ...
