THE two-dimensional structure of montmorillonite has been illustrated by electron micrographs of the face view of the plates1–3. We report what we believe to be the first micrograph to be ...

Researchers at the universities of Amsterdam and Utrecht have observed the formation of nanocavities in montmorillonite clay under exposure to gamma-aminobutyric acid, a molecule commonly found on ...

An electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses a particle beam of electrons to illuminate a specimen and create a highly-magnified image. Electron microscopes have much greater resolving ...

This article discusses the future of scanning electron microscopy and sub-nanometer imaging below 1 kV. ... The montmorillonite particles depicted in Fig. 2 are non-conducting. This specimen is imaged ...

Scanning electron microscopy images were captured on TM3030 (Hitachi, Japan) with an accelerating voltage of 15 kV. The samples of PU and PMP n composites were immersed in liquid nitrogen to ...

Rethinking the brain pacemaker: How better materials can improve signals Experimenting with materials to manage the unpleasant side effects of external noise in brain pacemakers ...

While the original electron microscope arrived in the early 1930’s (there’s still a controversy to this day over who invented the very first one), scientists have relied on what are known as ...

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, introduced a groundbreaking transmission electron microscope to a packed room of a.
