In the field of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) method has developed into a robust tool for the crystallographic analysis of materials. Specifically, ...
How a 3D-printed design can create a diffraction pattern in a simple science experiment about optics.
A new atom camera uses one ultracold rubidium atom to map light intensity and polarization with spatial resolution below 100 nanometers.
This page contains hints, solutions, and advanced challenges for our diffraction grating challenge. If you would like a grating (or a set for your class if you are a teacher), please contact us at ...
A pattern of distorted lines is visible as a reflection in this close-up view of a human eye. By observing the deformation of illumination patterns reflected off the eye's surface, researchers in ...
Two become one: various diffraction patterns showing Rayleigh's criterion. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons/Spencer Blevin) Scientists have long believed that diffraction limits the minimum distance that ...
What is X-Ray Crystallography? X-ray crystallography is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials. It involves directing a beam of X ...
