Two-dimensional (2D) materials are crystalline materials that are only one or a few atoms thick. Overall, 2D materials resemble a thin sheet of paper, where the thickness of one axis is on the ...

A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis. (Nanowerk ...

Scanning transmission electron microscopy, or STEM, is a powerful imaging technique that enables researchers to study a material’s morphology, composition, and bonding behavior at the angstrom scale.

This conceptual illustration of a computer based on 2D molecules displays an actual scanning electron microscope image of the computer fabricated by a team by researchers at Penn State. The keyboard ...

Schematic diagrams illustrating the atomic arrangement of an MoS₂ specimen observed using 4D-STEM, showing atomic-scale mapping in real-space coordinates x and y and corresponding diffraction patterns ...

In recent years, fluorescence quenching microscopy (FQM) 1-3 has emerged as a viable technique that allows for the swift, cost-effective, and accurate imaging of two-dimensional (2D) materials like ...

In this interview, AZoMaterials speaks with Professor Sarah Haigh, Professor of Materials Characterization at the University of Manchester, about her pioneering work in electron microscopy and its ...

Researchers from the Physical Chemistry and Theory departments at the Fritz Haber Institute have found a new way to image layers of boron nitride that are only a single atom thick. This material is ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are ...

Researchers develop reliable method using transmission electron microscopy to verify graphene's single-atom thickness, ...
