New electron microscope method detects atomic-scale magnetism

Wednesday, June 29, 2016 - 07:31 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists can now detect magnetic behavior at the atomic level with a new electron microscopy technique developed by a team from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Uppsala University, Sweden. The researchers took a counterintuitive approach by taking advantage of optical distortions that they typically try to eliminate. “It’s a new approach […]
