Dual-damascene copper metallization has been the mainstream technology of forming interconnections for IC devices. Defect formation during Cu metallization is one of main yield-limiting factors in IC ...

Electron microscopy in Biology in the 1940s and 1950s Although the transmission electron microscope was invented by Ernest Ruska in 1934, the first interesting results with biological samples were not ...

This is a Review of recent studies on surface structures of crystalline materials in the presence of gases in the mTorr to atmospheric pressure range, which brings surface science into a brand new ...

Many material and biological samples in scientific imaging are characterized by nonlocal repeating structures. These are studied using scanning electron microscopy and electron tomography. Sparse ...

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is of great significance for analyzing the ultrastructure. However, due to the requirements of data throughput and electron dose of biological samples in the imaging ...

Discover how snowflake yeast defies expectations, growing exponentially due to physical processes, challenging traditional views on evolution.

Based on the crystal structure, we hypothesize that when the crystal is subjected to a bending force in a three-point geometry, the distance between the molecules on the outer arc increases, while ...

Scanning electron micrograph of the surface of the embryonic mouse choroid plexus, showing numerous dome-shaped aposomes emerging from the epithelial layer after serotonin receptor 5HT2C activation.
