Once computer chip manufacturers have made their multi-layered structures, it is also necessary for them to verify precisely that the layers are composed in the proper way. One way of doing this is to shoot beams of ions which, like meteorites striking the Moon, eject material that can be characterized using mass spectrometry, providing information about subsurface layering.
The recent advent of transmission electron microscopes with integrated scanning probe microscope sample stages is permitting unprecedented nanoscale observation and analysis of materials. Jianyu Huang of Sandia National ...
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced the release of new software features that enhance data quality and acquisition speed for multi-spectrum data handling. New software features enhance the CyberReady capabilities of the award-winning K-Alpha X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrometer (XPS).
Because they are riddled with defects, bulk crystalline materials never achieve their ideal strength; nanocrystals, on the other hand, are so small there's no room for defects. Yet while nanocrystalline materials may approach ideal strength in their resistance to stress, most nanostructures have shown only a limited ability to withstand large internal strains before they fail.
The most advanced and powerful electron microscope on the planet-capable of unprecedented resolution-has been installed in the new Canadian Centre for Electron Microscopy at McMaster University.
"We are the first...
HORIBA Scientific, the leading manufacturer of spectroscopic ellipsometers for research and industry, offers an advanced thin film characterization platform called DeltaPsi2.
Scientists at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have, for the first time, succeeded in rendering the spatial distribution of individual atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate visible. Bose-Einstein condensates are small, ultracold gas clouds which, due to their low temperatures, can no longer be described in terms of traditional physics but must be described using the laws of quantum mechanics.
Trinean NV announced the closure of a 3,5 million # round of financing. The round was co-lead by new investor Vesalius Biocapital and existing investor Capital-E.
Trinean is a spin-off of the University of Ghent (Inte...
The special SESAM system, a high performance version of the LIBRA® 200 transmission electron microscope series from Carl Zeiss SMT, has been in use at the Stuttgart Center for Electron Microscopy (StEM) of the Max-Planck-Institute for Metals Research (MPI-MF) for the past 10 months.
The American Physical Society has awarded a UT Dallas researcher one of the society's highest honors, recognizing Dr. Yves Chabal's development of methods to better understand processes that take place on the silicon surface that is literally the platform for the multibillion-dollar semiconductor industry.
