Werner Heisenberg's famous uncertainty principle describes one of the most intriguing features of quantum physics: certain pairs of physical quantities describing a particle, such as position and ...
Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which ...
A laser (purple) is powerfully amplified by highly polished mirrors and focused on the electron beam (blue) to shift its phase and increase the cryo-EM microscope’s contrast, allowing biologists to ...
Stretching protein samples in all directions pulls molecules farther apart, allowing them to be visualized using only light ...
Scientists from the National Graphene Institute at the University of Manchester and Sun Yat-sen University have captured the growth of semiconducting tellurium nanostructures in liquid in real time, ...
The quest to observe electron movements in real time has reached a new milestone with the arrival of groundbreaking technology. A microscope developed by researchers at the University of Arizona now ...
From building the Centre for Pulse EPR at Imperial to probing electron transfer in real time, Maxie Rößler is pushing an overlooked technique into the spotlight ...
The emergence of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM; also called electron cryo-microscopy) as a tool for structure determination has been a major development in structural biology. The method is well ...
By capturing malaria parasites mid-invasion, researchers revealed the structure of a key invasion complex and used it to ...
A computer-assisted design schematic showing how an electron beam is routed within a microscope. After going through the sample, it crosses a bright cyan beam representing the laser beam. A schematic ...
