In the field of materials characterization, optical microscopy is one of the most commonly used imaging techniques. It is estimated that the diffraction limit of optical light is half of the ...

In situ transmission electron microscopy combines the image-capturing abilities of the TEM with real-time observations of how materials react to changes in external conditions such as electric or ...

Identical growth conditions yield uniform monolayer graphene on three different perovskite oxides, suggesting gas-phase chemistry enables universal fabrication without the defects that transfer ...

University of Manchester and National Physical Laboratory scientists have established a global benchmark for verifying graphene’s single-atom thickness. The benchmark was established using ...

Graphene could transform everything from electric cars to smartphones, but only if we can guarantee its quality. The University of Manchester has led the world’s largest study to set a new global ...
