    Atomic-scale imaging breakthrough with a compact SEM

    A breakthrough in accessible atomic-scale imaging In a development that could reshape how scientists study matter at the smallest scales, researchers at the University of Victoria have demonstrated a method to visualize atomic‑scale structures using a compact, low‑energy scanning electron microscope (SEM). Led by Arthur Blackburn, co‑director of UVic’s Advanced Microscopy Facility, the team combines…
