A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Researchers from the Physical Chemistry and Theory departments at the Fritz Haber Institute have found a new way to image layers of boron nitride that are only a single atom thick. This material is ...

Traditionally, X-ray methods require at least 10,000 atoms to generate a detectable signal. This is because the X-ray signal ...

Water is all around us, yet its surface layer—home to chemical reactions that shape life on Earth—is surprisingly hard to study. Experiments at SLAC's X-ray laser are bringing it into focus.

Ionizing radiation brings significant benefits to humankind in medical uses, such as the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. However, the use of ionizing radiation also carries a risk, and the ...
