A stunning new imaging breakthrough lets scientists see — and fix — the atomic flaws hiding inside tomorrow’s computer chips.

The ‘Tapping Mode SQUID-on-Tip’ (TM-SOT) microscope enables multimodal imaging to be performed extremely close to the sample surface using tapping mode feedback. This allows for stability during ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance. The imaging method, which was ...

Future devices will continue to probe the frontier of the very small, and at scales where functionality depends on mere atoms, even the tiniest flaw matters. Researchers at Rice University have shown ...

Protein structure predictions are bioinformatic analyses that produce predicted protein structures automatically using the protein amino acid sequence. Protein structures are important because ...

Nanoscale molybdenum disulfide memristors integrated onto standard CMOS chips achieve the lowest switching voltage reported ...

While Boyce’s crystal may be the largest single crystal of copper sulfate, students at the Kurfrüst-Ruprecht-Gymnasium in Germany hold the record for overall size. Their polymorphic crystal reached a ...

Researchers in the United States have developed a new technique that can spot hidden ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage ...

An international research team has demonstrated how conventional radiative cooling coatings can be optimized to further reduce building surface temperatures, cutting energy consumption, while also ...

Nanostructured materials are key to food safety, offering antimicrobial properties and smart packaging solutions that extend ...

Ubiquitin is an intracellular signalling molecule that is conjugated to various proteins. Ubiquitin conjugation to itself yields Lys- or Met-conjugated chains, thus expanding its repertoire of ...
