Researchers at Utrecht University have quantitatively mapped the three-dimensional structure of photonic supraparticles for the first time. Supraparticles are microscopic spheres composed of thousands ...

High temperature microscopy is the use of microscopy techniques on samples at high temperatures. Often, this means the microscopy instrumentation needs to be specifically designed to cope with the ...

Mesmerizing videos offer a new look at the ways crystals form. The real-time clips, described March 30 in Nature Nanotechnology, show closeup views of microscopic gold particles tumbling, sliding and ...

Found in salt, sugar, snowflakes and gemstones, crystals are highly ordered, layered structures Although crystals are ubiquitous in nature, how they form has remained a mystery Using optimized ...

UB-HWI offers a range of Structural Services to academic and industrial partners including single-particle cryo-EM, microcrystal-electron diffraction, and crystallization screening. Our philosophy is ...

The new technique allows scientists to see each particle that makes up colloidal crystals and to create dynamic three-dimensional models. A team of New York University researchers has created a new ...
