Over the last two decades, microscopy has seen unprecedented advances in speed and resolution. However, cellular structures are essentially three-dimensional, and conventional super-resolution ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Scientists using molds derived from carbon nanotubes have approached the ultimate resolution -- defined by molecular scale dimensions -- in a widely used polymer nanoimprinting ...

Treefall gaps play an important role in tropical forest dynamics and in determining above-ground biomass (AGB). However, our understanding of gap disturbance regimes is largely based either on surveys ...

Scientists have developed a computational technique that greatly increases the resolution of atomic force microscopy, a specialized type of microscope that 'feels' the atoms at a surface. The method ...
