Bacteriophages or “phages” is the terms used for viruses that infect bacteria. The UAB researchers, led by Terje Dokland, Ph.D., in collaboration with Asma Hatoum-Aslan, Ph.D., at the University of ...

Few standard optical microscopy methods can achieve the same level of spatial resolution, which is essential for being able to resolve geometric and structural features on the nanometer length scale.

A comparison of experimental annular dark field (ADF)-scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron ptychography in uncorrected and aberration-corrected electron microscopes. In the ...

Working on the nanoscale for manufacturing poses some unique challenges. While many macroscale manufacturing methods such as lithography and additive manufacturing have been successfully translated ...

Using a STEM-in-SEM conversion holder, we can convert a scanning electron microscope into a scanning transmission microscope. Neat!

Early diagnosis and noninvasive monitoring of neurological disorders require sensitivity to elusive cellular-level ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl ...

In this interview, AZoMaterials speaks with Professor Sarah Haigh, Professor of Materials Characterization at the University of Manchester, about her pioneering work in electron microscopy and its ...

Some of you probably know this already, but there’s actually more than one kind of electron microscope. In electronics work, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) is the most common. You hit ...
