Unlike optical microscopy, SEM does not rely on light waves but instead uses a beam of electrons to interact with materials, enabling magnifications up to 300,000× and resolutions approaching 1 nm. 1 ...

At Texas A&M AgriLife Research, a new branch of brain science is blooming at the molecular scale—with nanoflowers. A study published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry demonstrated that ...

SEM images of MPs prepared using the salting out method. Representative (a) high magnification and (b) low magnification imagesshow Silk MPs without IONPs. Representative (c) high and (d) low ...

In this study, chiral gold nanoparticles with a concave vortex cube structure were employed as the chiral substrate, exhibiting highly tunable optical chirality and intriguing chiral-induced spin ...

An example of a correlative study between XRM and FIB-SEM has been presented in an earlier study. 1 This article will expand the correlation one step beneath the length scale to link FIB-SEM and TEM, ...

A multi-institutional research team has clarified the energy levels of color centers at the SiO2/SiC interface, paving the way toward the development of scalable quantum technologies that use them as ...

Objectives: The flexural strength and elastic modulus of rapidly prototyped denture base materials are affected by numerous factors including reinforcement with nanoparticles (NPs) and post-curing ...

Vitamin C tablets’ surface roughness is key to defining their surface morphology and, therefore, their delivery rate and interaction time with external stimuli. Surface roughness can be observed via ...
