Light can carry angular momentum in two distinct ways. One comes from polarization, which describes how the electric field ...

Atomic-scale EMCD imaging reveals antiferromagnetic order in single atomic columns, detects ultrathin interfacial 'dead' ...

Measuring high aspect ratio and composite micro-trenches without damage is critical for advanced microfabrication, yet conventional coherence scanning interferometry often suffers from a low signal-to ...

Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have developed a 4D-STEM workflow that can isolate and solve atomic structures from individual nanocrystals buried inside dense, tangled clusters, ...

While there are similarities with the wars against Iraq, the Iran conflict may prove to be the most dangerous and consequential yet This is the third Gulf war and umpteenth outbreak of conflict since ...

The resolution of far-field optical microscopy stagnated for a century, but a quest began in the 1990s leading to nanoscale imaging of transparent fluorescent objects in three dimensions. Important ...

For the vast majority of Earth’s existence, our planet functioned as the quintessential circular system. The Sun’s energy nourished trees into life, and once they fell, microorganisms broke them down ...

Why is the full frame sensor so highly rated? Is it because its dimensions ape a frame of 35mm film and therefore make it a match for a shedload of vintage lenses? Or because, in swapping film for ...
