Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force microscope, then we look at a real AFM (an nGauge AFM from ICSPI) and do a few ...

Not all defects are visible with the same microscope. Explore how resolution, contrast, and signal interpretation shape semiconductor failure investigations.

An international team of researchers has synthesized a carbon chain molecule with a never-before-seen electronic twist and used quantum computing methods to confirm its exotic structure. The molecule, ...

The Park FX40 Automatic Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) System is capable of high spatial resolution surface mapping and is equipped with a True Non-Contact TM mode capable of nanoscale surface analysis ...

A research team from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed GrainBot, an AI-enabled toolkit that automatically extracts and quantifies multiple microstructural ...

An AI-powered toolkit automatically extracts and quantifies microstructural features from microscopy images, accelerating ...

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a powerful scanning probe microscopy technique that provides high-resolution imaging and measurement of surface properties at the nanoscale. It operates by using a ...

Researchers in Türkiye have developed a passive anti-soiling coating for PV panels using oleic acid–modified aluminum oxide nanoparticles applied via spray coating. Laboratory and field tests showed ...

Scientists created half-Möbius molecules, similar to the Möbius strips common in math classes, but half as twisty. It’s a type of topology, or geometrical structure, that is new to molecules, ...

A study reveals how two proteins cooperate in a key early step of antiviral detection, as reported by researchers at Science ...

An international team of researchers has shown that superconductivity can be modified by coupling a superconductor to a dark electromagnetic cavity. The research opens the door to the control of a ...
