Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter At the nanoscale all atoms vibrate. These vibrations define heat dissipation, chemical reactions, and material properties. The different ...
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...

Scientists capture first-ever real-time images of electrons in the act of breaking bonds
Chemistry textbooks explain how reactions start and end, but they rarely show what happens in between. Seeing these hidden moments matters because chemistry is ultimately governed by quantum rules. By ...
Invented 30 years ago, the atomic force microscope has been a major driver of nanotechnology, ranging from atomic-scale imaging to its latest applications in manipulating individual molecules, ...
The challenge: seeing atoms without freezing the budgetOptical-coupled scanning probe microscopes (OC-SPM) can visualize individual atoms and probe ...
Using single-atom-resolved microscopy, ultracold quantum gases composed of two types of atoms reveal distinctly different spatial correlations — the bosons on the left exhibit bunching, while the ...
New first-principles simulations reveal how metallic surfaces reshape nanoscale vibrational imaging, advancing the interpretation of tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. (Nanowerk News) Probing the ...
