Electron beams that power microscopes have shown the seemingly magical ability to heal microscopic fractures atom by atom.
In an unexpected new study, scientists at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities discovered that electron beam radiation, which they had previously believed damaged crystals, might help mend fissures in these nanostructures.
A research team has synthesized a thin film of a unique topological semimetal for the first time, a breakthrough with the potential to increase power and memory storage in computer chips while significantly reducing energy use.
Researchers have shown that epitaxial strain can be used to create high-quality metal oxide thin films out of ‘stubborn’ metals.
A University of Minnesota Twin Cities-led team has developed a first-of-its-kind, breakthrough method that makes it easier to create high-quality metal oxide thin films out of "stubborn" metals that have historically been difficult to synthesize in an atomically precise manner.
