A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Electron microscopes are used to visualize the structure of solids, molecules, or nanoparticles with atomic resolution. However, most materials are not static. Rather, they interact, move, and reshape ...
