For researchers on the cutting edge of chemistry and materials science, learning
how to manipulate particles hundreds of times smaller than the diameter of a
human hair and how to direct their self-assembly in a predictable way has been
a formidable but exciting challenge.
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (l...
