If you think of a single atom as a grain of sand, then a wavelength of visible light—which is a thousand times larger than ...

A team of researchers has developed an innovative imaging platform that promises to improve our understanding of cellular structures at the nanoscale. This platform, called soTILT3D for ...

American researchers have successfully combined multiple instruments to capture astonishing high-definition (HD) images of a ...

Definition: X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) is a powerful analytical technique used to characterize the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal. By measuring the angles and intensities of diffracted beams ...

Scientists have developed a new way to control light using a silicon metasurface and a genetic algorithm. This method allows real-time shaping of ...

A single speck of light—captured inside a lab at Oxford—turned the abstract into the tangible. It didn’t just win a prize; it showed that we ...
