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

Scientists have developed a new microscope that significantly improves the way heat flow in materials can be measured. This advancement could lead to better designs for electronic devices and energy ...

have found a new way to image layers of boron nitride that are only a single atom thick. This material is usually nearly invisible in optical microscopes because it has no optical resonances. To ...

New hybrid nano-microscope by KRISS allows simultaneous measurement of optical and electrical properties. Expected to accelerate nano-scale research on advanced equipment and materials such as bilayer ...

A team of researchers at the University of Iowa has created a new infrared cryo microscope. The homemade microscope was created to enable the recent study aimed at deepening the understanding of ...

The QTM involves the “twisting,” or rotating, of two atomically-thin layers of material with respect to one another. In recent years, such twisting has become a major source of discoveries. It began ...

After only six months from the inauguration of the Joint Electron Microscopy Center at ALBA (JEMCA), this marvel of technology is already feeding published research. In fact, the first paper including ...

Researchers have developed a deep learning algorithm for removing systematic effects from atomic force microscopy images, enabling more precise profiles of material surfaces. Atomic force microscopy, ...
