Physicists snap the first images of ‘free-range’ atoms

May 06, 2025 The results will help scientists visualize never-before-seen quantum phenomena in real space. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the “free-range” particles that until now were predicted but never directly observed. Their findings,...

Laser writing of electronics on flexible films

May 06, 2025 Researchers have used laser light to draw electronic circuits directly onto flexible films, sculpting 2D materials without chemicals, photolithography, or cleanrooms. (Nanowerk Spotlight) What if you could draw a working electronic circuit—right onto a flexible, transparent film—using just a beam of light? That’s precisely what researchers at...
