Scientists have observed “bending” atoms using a crystal grating—an experiment once believed impossible at the high energies required. The authors of a new, non-peer reviewed study detail how the a ...

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) is often referred to as the gold standard of sample characterisation, offering three-dimensional structure of both molecules and their crystalline packing, ...

Reliable colorimetric analysis technologies have been widely praised for their highly sensitive and selective responses towards various contaminants in environmental monitoring. In principle, the ...

A diffractive optic creates two DUV beams, which are focused and interfered on a sample surface (diamond) using a 4f imaging system to generate a microscopic sinusoidal excitation profile.

Lithium-ion battery optimization and safety are crucial to reducing cell aging. In this case, one of the most important elements is the particle size of the bioactive constituents such as cathode, ...
