What is Atom Probe Tomography? Atom Probe Tomography (APT) is a powerful analytical technique that provides three-dimensional (3D) imaging and chemical composition analysis of materials at the atomic ...
Physicists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a revolutionary way to look inside an atom’s ...
Scientists have taken another giant step towards building the most precise clock ever imagined—one that could display not ...
If you think of a single atom as a grain of sand, then a wavelength of visible light—which is a thousand times larger than ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) At the scale of individual atoms, materials behave in ways that defy everyday intuition. Stretch a metal wire by a few micrometers and its resistance changes only slightly.
Plutonium has captured the attention of scientists since its discovery in the early 1940s. This enigmatic element has an important role to play in emerging energy technologies like nuclear batteries ...
The hyperfine structure of radium monofluoride has been measured by researchers in the US and elsewhere with such precision ...
Developed by researchers at MIT, the method uses the atom’s own electrons as “messengers” within a molecule to help probe ...
