Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has ...

Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

Tokyo, Japan – One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of slightly misaligned periodic structures. This phenomenon, ...

Advancements in structured illumination and computational imaging are revolutionizing semiconductor wafer inspection, ...

Positronium shouldn't last long enough to be interesting. It's an "atom" assembled from an electron and its antimatter twin — ...

An intense X-ray beam (in pink) is focused into a small spot on a single nanoscale grain of a platinum electrode (highlighted within the droplet). Diffraction interference patterns from that grain ...
