Next, what’s known as an optical gating pulse initiates, allowing an infinitesimal timeframe for a one-attosecond electron pulse to then emit from the microscope.

Electron microscopes are some of the most powerful tools in science, allowing us to capture images at a scale so tiny that we can observe individual atoms! Unlike traditional light microscopes ...

It’s a problem that few of us will ever face, but if you ever have to calibrate your scanning electron microscope, you’ll need a resolution target with a high contrast under an electron beam ...

Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered ...

Atomic-scale imaging emerged in the mid-1950s and has been advancing rapidly ever since—so much so, that back in 2008, physicists successfully used an electron microscope to image a single ...

Scientists have created the world's fastest microscope, which they hope will answer fundamental questions about how electrons behave.

Recently there has been a spate of scientific papers containing the phrase " vegetative electron microscopy/microscope ". The term suggests a device for scanning broccoli, but it is utter nonsense.

SEM stands for scanning electron microscope. The SEM is a microscope that uses electrons instead of light to form an image. Since their development in the early 1950's, scanning electron microscopes ...

University of Arizona physicists have developed the world’s fastest electron microscope to capture events lasting just one quintillionth of a second.

Using a laser and an electron beam, the microscope can snap images of moving electrons every 625 quintillionths of a second.
