How do organic solar cells work on the inside? The answer lies in structures far too small to see—and difficult to access ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A new study reveals that electrons don’t just need energy to escape solids — they need the right “doorway state.” (CREDIT: MPQ, ...

A new analysis reveals what happens when very short or narrow electron beams encounter a particle. The research is published ...

This ultrafast electron microscopy method allows researchers to observe how microelectronic materials function at nanoscale lengths and nanosecond speeds. The drive toward smaller, faster and more ...

Traditional electron microscopy techniques include scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where electrons that interact with the sample are imaged. 4 The ...

Tick-borne encephalitis virus, known as TBEV, hijacks the internal membrane machinery of host cells to build hidden factories ...

In transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where the electron beam passes through the sample to be directly imaged on the detector below, it is often necessary to support the thin samples on a grid.

ORNL researcher David Cullen has been named a Fellow of the Microscopy Society of America for significant contributions to ...

Students and faculty will soon see the world in a new light on campus. The College has won a grant to purchase a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) ...

If you picture an electron breaking free from a solid, the process seems simple. Give it enough energy, and it should blast off into space. But a team of researchers from TU Wien and their colleagues ...
