Atoms measure roughly 0.1 nanometers across, a scale so small that scientists spent more than six decades developing ...

A biomimetic synapse built from water droplets and biological ion channels achieves synaptic plasticity and performs machine learning tasks.

A pore smaller than one nanometer reads peptide sequences amino acid by amino acid, pinpointing single-site Alzheimer's ...

The electronic structure of atoms and molecules is the series of energy levels that it are possible for a bound electron to occupy. This electronic structure determines many of the defining ...

When you toss a coin, you put it into a higher-energy state until it falls back down again. It can then end up in one of two ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists have trapped a single plutonium atom inside a tiny molecular cage, using only six micrograms of the radioactive metal. The work turns an element ...

Phonons are the collective vibrations that move through a solid. They can be thought of as waves traveling across the atomic ...

For the first time, researchers have shown that self-assembled phosphorus chains can host genuinely one-dimensional electron ...

Sometimes, transporting electrons from one cell to another is a team effort. In electroactive bacteria, that team is a group ...

Scientists have developed a new imaging technique that uses a novel contrast mechanism in bioimaging to merge the strengths ...

The shortest wavelength of a laser beam generated from a crystal has been realised in a laboratory at the Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, according ...

The ATC Ion Milling Systems are versatile tools that can be built in a wide variety of configurations. Depending on your application, these custom designed systems utilize state of the art substrate ...
