Study Shows Chemical Process of Molecule-to-Molecule Transformation on Nanoscale Written by AZoNanoMay 25 2021 From the time molecular reactions were estimated and the existence of molecules was demonstrated, human beings have always wanted to visually watch the way these events continue.

These observations of single-molecule reactions are extremely crucial for the fundamental interpretation of chemical sciences, which would support the development of innovative materials, catalysts, or medications, and help humans decode the intricate biochemical processes. But this proved to be impossible for the longest period in contemporary chemistry, and to date, the data of nanoscale dynamical processes was acquired only from indirect techniques because molecules were extremely tiny to be observed.
