Scientist make revolutionary progress in electron microscope resolution. |

EurekAlert: "We've shown we can improve upon the resolution limit of an electron lens by a factor of five. An extension of the same method should reach the highest resolution transmission image ever obtained; about one tenth of an atomic diameter. No longer does TEM have to be bound by the paradigm of the lens, its Achilles' heel since its invention in 1933." |
