Research led by scientists at Washington State University has revealed insights on how plants form a microscopic landscape of proteins crucial to photosynthesis, the basis of Earth's food and energy ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance. The imaging method, which was ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

Researchers used advanced electron ptychography to visualize atomic-scale defects inside modern transistors. The technique ...

Long before nanotechnology existed, Richard Feynman explained how atoms could store huge amounts of information in microscopic spaces.

A team at IBM Research has assembled a strange new ring-shaped molecule that bends around like a more complicated Möbius strip ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a computational method capable of simulating the movements of some of the ...

Published today in Science, the discovery marks the creation and observation of the first molecule with a half-Möbius ...

So, what exactly is quantum theory in chemistry? It’s basically the set of ideas that explain how atoms and molecules behave at a really, really tiny level. Think smaller than you can even imagine.

Cornell researchers have used advanced electron microscopy to identify "mouse bite" defects in 3D transistors for the first time ...
