Calibration is the process of adjusting and verifying that an instrument, for example, an optical microscope, is taking measurements accurately by comparing them to a known measurement standard or ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

When using a measurement microscope, users can measure the size and dimensions of sample features in both two and three dimensions, which is important for inspection, quality control (QC), failure ...

No matter how robust they are, heavy-duty trucks aren’t immune to problems. The segment has seen a string of recalls lately, ...

Researchers continue to extract fresh scientific findings from Barringer Meteorite Crater in Arizona, a bowl-shaped depression carved by a space rock roughly 50,000 to 60,000 years ago. Recent ...

A new momentum microscope at Forschungszentrum Jülich makes electrons and their properties in solids visible. The instrument, developed entirely in Jülich, provides unprecedentedly insights into ...

A team of researchers has developed the first transmission electron microscope which operates at the temporal resolution of a single attosecond, allowing for the first still-image of an electron in ...

A regional Minnesota crime lab has acknowledged using an expired chemical solution to test blood alcohol samples in July 2023, a slip that defense attorneys say could cast a shadow over multiple DWI ...

Engineers leverage both device-specific and tool-level data to identify a process “sweet spot.” Tight, frequent tool-to-tool matching enables greater yield and fab flexibility. Machine learning helps ...

Microscopy refers to any method used to acquire images of nearby objects at resolutions that greatly exceed the resolving ability of the unaided human eye. Object visualization may be mediated by ...
