Sentences with phrase «scanning tunnelling microscopy imaging»

The researchers verified the structure of the nitrogenated crystal by atomic - resolution scanning tunnelling microscopy imaging and confirmed its semiconducting nature by testing it with a field effect transistor.

The catalytic action of individual Ni atoms at the edges of a growing graphene flake was directly captured by scanning tunneling microscopy imaging at the millisecond time scale, while force field molecular dynamics and density functional theory calculations rationalize the experimental observations.

Not exact matches

Imaging spectroscopy provides information about the local environment of the atoms, similar to the incredible resolution offered by scanning tunneling microscopy.

In the study published this week in the journal Science, the research team described how they enhanced an existing imaging technique, called scanning tunneling microscopy, to capture signals from the Majorana particle at both ends of an atomically thin iron wire stretched on the surface of a crystal of lead.

The technique has since proved an invaluable imaging tool that brings the spatial resolution of scanning tunnelling microscopy - its close fore - runner - to investigations of insulating surfaces.
