Unlike almost every other kind of microscope, atomic-force microscopes (AFMs) don’t use any kind of optical beam to image ...
How a 3D-printed design can create a diffraction pattern in a simple science experiment about optics. Coffee linked to significant new side effect, says massive study Israel strikes Iran after missile ...
Hello! In this post, I would like to introduce a science explanation video I uploaded to Nico Nico Douga. To make it easy for readers to watch right away, I have provided the video link below. Please ...
The spectrum of laser technologies available to hackers has gradually widened from basic gas lasers through CO2 tubes, diode lasers, and now fiber lasers. One of the newer entries is the MOPA laser, ...
The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Since their discovery in 1982, exotic materials known as quasicrystals have bedeviled physicists and chemists. Their atoms arrange ...

A research partnership between two Department of Energy national laboratories has accelerated inspection of additively manufactured nuclear components, and the effort is now expanding to inspect ...
I used to think scattering was a fraction of what I could apply to my project, but to see all the different things I can learn about my materials from the different techniques is amazing. - Michael ...
The surprisingly simple tile is the first single, connected tile that can fill the entire plane in a pattern that never repeats — and can’t be made to fill it in a repeating way. In mid-November of ...
Stars in the new images from the James Webb Space Telescope look sharper than they did before. And I’m not just talking about the image quality, which is astounding. I’m talking about the fact that ...
The software DISEMM is designed to analyse diffraction data from in situ loading experiments for the determination of single-crystal elastic constants and an elasto-plastic self-consistent modelling ...
