In recent decades, in situ electron microscopy has attracted considerable attention. The method enables real time observations of the transformations of nanoparticles under various stimuli with atomic spatial resolution. Time-resolved electron microscopy a ...

Transmission electron microscopy at atomic-resolution is a crucial tool in a variety of fields, ranging from materials science to biology. [1,2] Fast electron cameras have recently enabled high-speed observations atomic resolution. [3] Moreover, they have ...

Integrated photonics facilitates extensive control over fundamental light-matter interactions in manifold quantum systems including atoms(1), trapped ions(2,3), quantum dots(4) and defect centres(5). Ultrafast electron microscopy has recently made free-ele ...

Plasmonic nanoparticles in aqueous solution have long been known to fragment under irradiation with intense ultrafast laser pulses, creating progeny particles with diameters of a few nanometers. However, the mechanism of this process is still intensely deb ...

Laser photo-detachment combined with a Langmuir probe (LP) is used to diagnose negative ion properties in electronegative plasmas. The technique relies on the combined use of a laser pulse and an LP. The laser pulse converts negative ions into electron-ato ...

Unification of the techniques of ultrafast science and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has the potential of tracking electronic motion in molecules simultaneously in real space and real time. Laser pulses can couple to an STM junction either in the wea ...

High-resolution live-cell imaging is necessary to study complex biological phenomena. Modern fluorescence microscopy methods are increasingly combined with complementary, label-free techniques to put the fluorescence information into the cellular context. ...

Free-electron beams are versatile probes of microscopic structure and composition(1,2), and have revolutionized atomic-scale imaging in several fields, from solid-state physics to structural biology(3). Over the past decade, the manipulation and interactio ...

The recent demonstration of isolated attosecond pulses from an X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) opens the possibility for probing ultrafast electron dynamics at X-ray wavelengths. An established experimental method for probing ultrafast dynamics is X-ray t ...

The ability to switch ferroics (ferro-, ferri-, antiferromagnets, ferroelectrics, multiferroics) between two stable bit states is one of the keystones of modern data storage technology. Due to many new ideas, originating from fundamental research during th ...
