Researchers at the University of Victoria have developed a new ptychography-based imaging technique that achieves sub-angstrom resolution (0.67 Å) using a compact, low-energy scanning electron microscope. This is something that was only considered possible with very large, high-end transmission electron microscopes. This technique has the potential to make atomic scale imaging affordable enough for most people in the electron microscope field. https://news.uvic.ca/media-relea

The University of Vienna in Austria recently announced a groundbreaking observation in materials science. Researchers from the University of Vienna in Austria directly observed the hexatic phase (an exotic intermediate state between solid and liquid) in an atomically thin two-dimensional crystal for the first time. Results were published in a paper in Science titled: " Hexatic phase in covalent two-dimensional silver iodide ". The experiment was conducted using a Nion electr
