Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is a set of advanced methods for surface analysis. The recent advances in SPM of metals, polymers, insulating, and semiconductive materials are primarily due to the ...

In the world of semiconductor nanodevices, where quantum effects and atomic positions dictate behavior, the demand for advanced characterization methods is on the rise, and spectroscopic techniques ...

Auger electron spectroscopy is a well-established surface-sensitive technique. It has been mostly used for the identification of species on sample surfaces, especially to monitor the process of sample ...

Scanning Tunneling Microscopes (STMs) are amazing tools which can manipulate singular atoms, but they cannot characterize these atoms as they act only on the outer electron shell. Meanwhile X-ray ...

A scientific team has found a new way to take the local temperature of a material from an area about a billionth of a meter wide, or approximately 100,000 times thinner than a human hair. This ...

OAK RIDGE, Tenn., March 13, 2018--A scientific team led by the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory has found a new way to take the local temperature of a material from an area about a ...

Imatinib (STI571) plus hydroxyurea: Safety and efficacy in pre-treated, progressive glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients (pts) No significant financial relationships to disclose. This is an ASCO ...

Basic concept of THz-field-driven scanning tunneling luminescence (THz-STL) spectroscopy. Luminescence from a localized plasmon can be induced by THz-field-driven inelastically tunneled electrons.

Designed for the demanding requirements of public safety and elite military forces, the compact, rugged Thermo Scientific ™ Gemini ™ analyzer allows operators to execute their mission quickly, safely ...
