Electron diffraction methods have emerged as powerful tools for elucidating the atomic structures of a wide range of materials. Among these methods, cryo‐electron microscopy and microcrystal electron ...

Researchers at Harvard University and Jiangsu University developed a technique for not only identifying infected cells, but also tracking the infection over time as the cells developed. They published ...

(Nanowerk News) X-ray single particle imaging (SPI) is a technique where the very bright X-ray pulses produced by XFELs are used to image single particles like biomolecules. When the laser beam is ...

Back in 2010, crystallographer Tim Gruene heard a scientist from drugmaker Novartis say something that stuck with him. The pharmaceutical giant had amassed a collection of around 2 million small ...

Experiments were conducted to establish a laser diffraction-based method for the determination of lactose powder particle size. This was accomplished using a Bettersizer 2600 equipped with a fully ...

Laser diffraction is a formidable and widely embraced technology for particle size determination. However, regardless of the instrument employed, researchers will inevitably encounter data quality ...

Researchers have taken atomic diffraction to a new level, revealing surprising behaviors in high-energy helium and hydrogen ...

Diffraction is a classic optical phenomenon accounting for the light propagation. The efficient calculation of diffraction is of significant value towards the real-time prediction of light fields. The ...

In a study published in Photonics Research, researchers from Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has proposed a new scheme for single-shot ...

Researchers at Tokyo Tech have discovered hidden chemical order of the Mo and Nb atoms in disordered Ba 7 Nb 4 MoO 20, by combining state-of-the-art techniques, including resonant X-ray diffraction ...

In order to cut, grind and polish softer materials, an abrasive is typically used. It is either a natural or a synthetic mineral, which is applied liberally to shape or finish a workpiece to a ...
